it' called a part of the mantle
The lower part of the mantle is called the "lower mantle" or "mesosphere", while the upper part of the mantle is referred to as the "upper mantle" or "asthenosphere".
The lithosphere is the crust Moho and upper mantle. It floats on a plasticity zone called the asthenosphere.
The mantle is subdivided into the upper mantle and the lower mantle. The upper mantle is closer to the Earth's surface and consists of solid rock that can flow slowly over long periods of time. The lower mantle is located beneath the upper mantle and is more rigid due to higher pressure and temperature.
The crust and uppermost hard rocky mantle, together, is known as the lithosphere, which is above the plastic-like upper mantle area known as the asthenosphere.
Together the crust and upper mantle make the lithosphere.
The upper mantle is made of something called peridodite.
The upper mantle is made of something called peridodite.
The lower part of the mantle is called the "lower mantle" or "mesosphere", while the upper part of the mantle is referred to as the "upper mantle" or "asthenosphere".
The relatively soft layer of the upper mantle is called the asthenosphere
Earth's crust and brittle upper mantle is called the lithosphere.
The lithosphere is the crust Moho and upper mantle. It floats on a plasticity zone called the asthenosphere.

Upper Mantle
The layer of the Earth that contains both the crust and upper mantle is called the Lithosphere.
