What is the earth's layer of solid rock that flows under pressure?
The solid layer of the earth that can still flow is called the asthenosphere. This layer is located in the mantle of the earth the layer below the upper crust and lithosphere, home of the tectonic plates.
Earthquake's center usually center aruond a single point under earth's surface called a what?
Epicenter
What is the origin of an earthquake under the surface under the earth?
Focus
Is most of the earth's surface under water?
Well, 71% of Earth is covered by water, which is more than half, so, yes, most of Earth's surface is under water.
What is the mistake in this sentence The surface of Earth is in constant motion because of forces on the planet's surface?
THE FORCES MOVING EARTH'S SURFACE ARE UNDERNEATH EARTH'S SURFACE, IN THE UPPER MANTLE. FWI, these forces are actually huge convection currents in the magma buried under Earth's crust.
What is the layer of rock under Earth's surface called?
the crust
What is the solid rock layer or other matter under the surface of the Earth called?
substratum
What is the outer layer of the earth called?
The crust is the outer or surface layer of the planet.
What is the layer under the earth's mantle called?
the layer under the mantle layer is the outer core
What is alayer of coal under the gound called?
A layer of coal underground is called a coal seam. This seam is a continuous layer or sheet of coal that is buried beneath the surface of the Earth.
What is the term for melted rock under Earth's surface?
'Magma' is melted rock occurring under the Earth's surface. When it comes up and flows out on the Earth's surface it is called 'lava'.
What do you call the molten rocks under the earth surface?
Molten rocks under the Earth's surface are called magma. When magma reaches the Earth's surface, it is then called lava.
What is moolten material at the earth surface called?

What is under the ozone?
Under the ozone layer is the stratosphere, a layer of Earth's atmosphere that extends from about 10 to 50 kilometers above the planet's surface. The stratosphere contains the ozone layer, which plays a crucial role in protecting life on Earth by absorbing and filtering out harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun.
What is the thick layer under the crust?
The thick layer under the Earth's crust is called the mantle. It is made up of solid rock that can flow slowly over long periods of time. The mantle is responsible for driving the movement of tectonic plates on the Earth's surface.
