Very plastic like and fragile
Moves 2-10 centimeters per year
5% liquid (Molten Rock)
asthenosphere
This is known as the asthenosphere.
the asthenosphere is green:D
The solid plastic layer of the mantle beneath the lithosphere is called the asthenosphere. It is characterized by its semi-fluid nature, allowing for the movement of tectonic plates over time. The asthenosphere plays a crucial role in the process of plate tectonics.
the Mesosphere
The asthenosphere is a semi-fluid layer of the Earth's mantle located beneath the lithosphere. It is responsible for plate tectonics and the movement of tectonic plates. The asthenosphere is composed of hot, solid rock that can flow slowly over long periods of time.
The asthenosphere is a semi-fluid layer located beneath the lithosphere of the Earth's crust. It is responsible for the movement of tectonic plates due to its plasticity. The asthenosphere is composed of hot, partially molten rock that allows for convection currents to occur, driving plate tectonics.
It is called the asthenosphere.

No. The asthenosphere is plastic in texture.

The Asthenosphere is a layer of the upper mantle.
