How does the lithosphere differ from the asthenophere in terms of texture?

lithosphere is differ from the asthenophere because lithosphere in greek lithos means "stone" and asthenophere is what the crust floats on.


How do you make the lithosphere?

you make the lithosphere with the mantle and the asthenophere.


Is magma molten rock formed in the asthenophere?

No, it is not. It is found in the lithosphere. The lithosphere is between the mantle and the crust.


What is asthenophere?

The Asthenosphere is the upper layer of Earth's mantle. It lies below the Lithosphere.


How does the Biosphere interact with the Lithosphere?

the lithosphere is what the biosphere lives on and if there was no lithosphere the biosphere would die. the biosphere is what the lithosphere needs to survive. the bodies of dead matter decomposes to make the lithosphere able to make more biomatter for the biosphere.

Do the atmosphere hydrosphere and the lithosphere interact with each other?

Hydrosphere erodes a part of lithosphere and at the same time the atmosphere is constantly incorporating a part of hydrosphere via evaporation and dumping some of it in lithosphere. From the lithosphere, it is transported back to the hydrosphere and the cycle continues.


What are facts about the earths asthenosphere?

How thick is the asthenophere?

The asthenosphere (or low-velocity zone) is believed to be about 200 kilometers (120 miles) thick. The layers of rock that make up the asthenosphere are thought to be partially melted and hotter than those in the lithosphere. If this were true, it would explain why the asthenosphere might also have less surface integrity, making it a possible source for the generation of new magma.


Why does oceanic lithosphere sink beneath convergent lithosphere at convergent boundaries?

As odd as it is to think of things this way, continental lithosphere is more buoyant than oceanic lithosphere. The oceanic lithosphere is more dense.


The crust and uppermost mantle make up the rigid outer layer of earth called the?

The uppermost mantle and the crust makes the lithosphere.
