Why does rock in the asthenosphere behave differently from the rock above?

The rock in the asthenosphere is hotter and under higher pressure, which causes it to be partially molten and flow more easily compared to the solid rock above. This difference in behavior allows the asthenosphere to undergo plastic deformation and contribute to the movement of tectonic plates.

Why do things sound different under water?

Sound travels faster and farther in water than in air due to water's higher density and acoustic properties. This change in medium affects the way sound waves propagate, causing them to be perceived differently underwater. Additionally, water absorbs and distorts sound waves at different frequencies, altering the tone and clarity of sounds.
