Which part of earth's mantle is the most solid?
The most outer solid portion of the planet Earth is the crust.
What are earth's continents considered to be part of what layer?
The crust.
What is the ridge layer of earths surface made up of the crust and part of the mantle called?
lithoshpere
What part of the earths mantle that flows and moves the plates of the earth?
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.
What are. The three parts of the earth?
The core, mantle and the crust. (There is an inner and outer core, and an inner and outer mantle.)
Which of the earth's spheres includes its mantle core and crust?
The Earth's mantle, core, and crust are all part of the geosphere, which encompasses the solid Earth. The geosphere includes the crust (outer layer), mantle (middle layer), and core (innermost layer) of the Earth.
The asthenosphere is part of which layer of the earth?
The Asthenosphere is part of the Mantle of the Earth
What is the name of the upper rocky layer of Earth that includes the crust and the top part of the mantle?
The upper rocky layer of Earth is called the lithosphere. It includes the Earth's crust and the uppermost part of the mantle.
What earth layer contains the crust?
The Earth's crust is part of the outermost layer of the Earth, which is composed of the crust and the uppermost portion of the mantle. This layer is known as the lithosphere, which includes both the continental crust and the oceanic crust. Beneath the lithosphere lies the asthenosphere, which is a more ductile part of the upper mantle.
The crust and the girid upper part of the mantle is found in what part of earth?
Earth's lithosphere includes the crust and the uppermost mantle, which constitute the hard and rigid outer layer of the Earth.
Which layer includes crust and upper mantle?
The layer that includes the crust and upper mantle is the lithosphere. The lithosphere is the rigid outer layer of the Earth that is broken into tectonic plates. It includes the crust and the uppermost part of the mantle.
What is the part of the earth in between the crust and the mantle is called?
The part of the Earth between the crust and the mantle is called the lithosphere. It includes the Earth's crust and the uppermost portion of the mantle, which together form a rigid layer. Below the lithosphere lies the asthenosphere, a semi-fluid layer of the mantle that allows for tectonic plate movement.
lithoshere?
layer of the earth that consists of the earth that consists of the crust and water part of the mantle
Is the mantle is the thickest layer of Earth?
The mantle, by far, is the thickest layer of the Earth.
Which layer inside the earth includes the upper most portions of the mantel and the crust?
The lithosphere includes the uppermost part of the mantle and it also includes all of the crust.
What layer of the earth forms the earths plates?
Tectonic plates are floating on the magma (semi-molten rocks) of the mantle layer. Therefore, they form the crust layer of the Earth.
lithosphere?
a rigid layer that can break under stress
