Earths outer most layer consits of the crust and uppermost mantle and forms a relatively cool, rigid shell called the lithosphere. This layer averges about 100 kil. in thickness. Beneath the lithosphere lies a soft, comparatively weak layer known as the asthenosphere. The lower lithosphere and upper asthenosphere are both part OS the uppr mantle.
What else can I help you with?
Which part of the asthenosphere and lithosphere are parts of Earths?
Both the asthenosphere and lithosphere are part of Earth's upper mantle. The asthenosphere is a semi-fluid layer beneath the lithosphere where convection currents occur, while the lithosphere includes the rigid outer layer of the Earth that consists of the crust and the uppermost part of the mantle.
What is earths softest layer?
Lithosphere :)
What are the three parts that make up Earths mantle?
mesosphere, asthenosphere, ionosphere
Is the asthenosphere part of the earths crust?
No, the asthenosphere is not part of the Earth's crust. It is a layer within the upper mantle, located below the lithosphere. The asthenosphere is a semi-fluid region that allows the lithospheric plates to move.
Where would you draw a line on the Earths layers to show the bottom of the lithosphere?
You would draw the line at the base of the lithosphere, which is the boundary between the lithosphere and the asthenosphere. This boundary is located around 100-200 kilometers below the Earth's surface and marks the point where the rigid lithosphere transitions to the more ductile asthenosphere.
About the asthenosphere?
The asthenosphere has the ability to slow down seismic waves. Is not made up of earths plates that would be the lithosphere.
Between earths lithosphere and its core is its?
After the lithosphere is the asthenosphere, then comes the lower mantle. After that is the outer core, and then is the inner core.

The asthenosphere is a semi-fluid layer beneath the lithosphere where convection currents occur, while the lithosphere includes the rigid outer layer of the Earth that consists of the crust and the uppermost part of the mantle.
What is the order starting from the surface of earths layers?
lithosphere, asthenosphere, mesosphere, outer core, inner core
Asthenosphere part of the inner core?
I'm studying the earths layers and it's right after the lithosphere which is right underneath the crust I'm studying the earths layers and it's right after the lithosphere which is right underneath the crust I'm studying the earths layers and it's right after the lithosphere which is right underneath the crust

Lithosphere :)
What are the three parts that make up Earths mantle?
mesosphere, asthenosphere, ionosphere
What is the thick layer of earths interior that lies between the crust and the core?
the mantle, which contains the lithosphere, asthenosphere and the mesosphere
What is the correct order starting from the surface of the earths layers?
lithosphere, asthenosphere, mesosphere, outer core, inner core
What is the order of the earths layers from the center to the surface?
crust, lithosphere,asthenosphere,lowermantle, outer core, inner core
