A portion of the upper mantle known as the asthenosphere.
The asthenosphere is made of soft rock and bends like plastic in the mantle.
It is the Asthenosphere
The lithosphere is the upper portion of the mantle. Its temperature is around 300 to 500 degrees Celsius. The lower portion of the mantle, which is the asthenosphere, has a temperature of around 4500 degrees Celsius.
Yes. The mantle is composed of the plastic mantle, or the upper part, which is partially molten. The stiffer mantle is under it. it is not as molten
lower
This is known as the Asthenospehere.
A portion of the upper mantle known as the asthenosphere.
It is called the asthenosphere, the layer directly below the lithosphere.
The asthenosphere
The asthenosphere is made of soft rock and bends like plastic in the mantle.
The temperature of the plastic mantle, or asthenosphere, is inferred to be about 1600 degrees Celsius.
Partially molten, plastic like, flowing layer located below the solid part of Earth's mantle is the Asthenosphere. The asthenosphere is mechanically weak and ductiley deforming region of the upper mantle.
The mantle (the inner portion of the mantle to be exact).
the upper-mantle rocks are heavier while the lower mantle rocks are semisolid like melted plastic
