It is in a solid state of matter. Unlike the deeper rocks of the mantle, crustal rocks do not readily deform, and heating from below will cause the lowest layers to melt into magma...which being less dense tends to flow upward.
Yes
Powders flow under little stress,solids do not.
In the mantle
A particle that has a fixed shape and doesn't flow
the crust and the inner core
crust = solid mantle = solid soft enough to flow though outer core = liquid iron inner core = solid iron
A solid does not flow easily.
All the layers of the Earth are solid except for the outer core which is comprised of molten iron and nickel.
The lithosphere is solid and does not flow, but is carried on top of the asthenosphere.
It cannot flow because its not hot
Inner core
You can stand on it which proves its solid, there are volcano's which prove its not solid in the center
None candy canes don't have layers. Candy canes are a solid they don't have layers. CANDY CANES DON'T HAVE LAYERS. But onions have layers.
well, it depends on the kind of flow that you are assuming.the flow can be categorized as laminar flow and turbulent flow. in laminar flow(purely imaginary) water is not underwater.ie all the layers of water flow continuously however practically speaking this does not occur at all.the flow of water takes place in separate layers because of internal friction between different layers of water.in this case one layer of water is below the other layer.
