Which layer of the earths layer has melted rock that moves like a thick liquid?
mantle
Partially molten, plastic-like, flowing layer located below the solid part of Earths mantle?
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.
What is the plastic-like part of the mantle?
The asthenosphere is made of soft rock and bends like plastic in the mantle.

a constructive force is a natural event that helps the earth like wheathering
Why is the Earth's mantle solid?
Yes, the mantle is techincally a solid. If you want to get techincal, however, it is a viscoelastic material, meaning that over short invertvals it behaves as an elastic solid, but over the course of tens of thousands to millions of years it flows like a viscous liquid.
Partially molten, plastic-like, flowing layer located below the solid part of Earths mantle?
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.
