most earths volume is contained in the mantle.
Yes the upper mantle is solid. The lower mantle however is not.
30% land/mountains, 70% water.
The mantle comprises some 85% of the earth. It is a thick layer between the crust and the core, and the depth to which it goes (by "definition") is such that it takes up most of the earth's volume. Use the link below for more information.
The mantle makes up 68.4 % of earth's mass and 49.5 % of earth's volume. The mantle extends from the base of the crust to a depth of about 2900 km (1800 mi).

The mantle.
Most of earth's volume has been scientifically proved to be in the earth's mantle.
The mantle is 82% of Earth's volume. It is composed of ultramafic rock called peridotite, which is hot enough to flow.
Yes the upper mantle is solid. The lower mantle however is not.
The earth's atmosphere comprises a volume of gases and that cannot be measured in square miles.
30% land/mountains, 70% water.

ANSWER: The crust floats on the asthenospheric mantle, which is convecting due to the forces of plate tectonics. The mantle, which extends to a depth of nearly 3,000 kilometers is the source of all magma. The mantle makes up 84% of the earth's volume and can sometimes get as hot as 3700°C. ==== ====
The Mantle--The layer directly below the crust which is delineated from the crust by the Mohorovicic Discontinuity, where seismic waves increase in velocity. The division between the mantle and the crust is a chemical one, the rocks and constituent minerals being higher in magnesium and lower in silicon and aluminum than crustal rocks. The mantle comprises 84% of Earth's volume.
The percentage of Earth's crust is less than one percentage in terms of Earth's volume. The Earth's crust is actually a thin layer.
