crust
Earths under crust surrounded by Upper Mantle (35-60 km) .The mantle is composed of sillicate rocks that are rich in iron and magnesium relative to the overlying crust.

Mantle plumes are in the mantle, BELOW the Earth's crust. The circulation of heat from the lower mantle to the upper mantle can cause "hot spots" in the overlying crust, heating the magma in the areas.
No. The crust contains a small fraction of earth's mass. Most of the mass is contained in the mantle.

mantle
The sphere that extends from Earth's core to Earth's crust is known as the mantle. It is a layer of solid rock that lies between the core and the crust, making up the majority of Earth's volume. The mantle is divided into the upper mantle and the lower mantle based on depth and composition.
The mantle is hotter than the crust.
yes it does.

the area of of earths crust that is the thickest is the mantle.
Most of Earth's volume is contained in the mantle, which is the layer between the crust and the core. The mantle makes up about 84% of Earth's volume and is composed of solid rock that can flow slowly over long periods of time.
The mantle is located right under Earth's crust.
