The asthenosphere is the region of the upper mantle of the Earth. With a base depth of about 700 kilometers, it is involved in plate tectonic movement and isotactic adjustments, seismic waves pass through slowly and a small percentage of melt.

What are 5 characteristics of the upper mantle?
its solid and under the asthenosphere
What is one of the characteristics of the asthenosphere?
The asthenosphere is a zone of weak material that exists below the lithosphere. The rock within this zone is easily deformed.
