Clay, typically, is the only soft and plastic rock.

Unless you were thinking of the Mantle, which forms the bulk of the planet Earth. It is hot enough to be "molten" although in fact is extremely viscous.

The layer made of solid rock that slowly flows?

The layer you are referring to is the asthenosphere, which is composed of solid rock that flows slowly due to high heat and pressure. This layer is located beneath the lithosphere and is responsible for the movement of tectonic plates.


Which layer of earth is made up of loose rocks and soil?

The layer of Earth made up of loose rocks and soil is the Earth's crust. It is the outermost layer of the Earth and is where most geological activity, such as earthquakes and mountain-building, occurs.


Which earth layer is like plastic and moves slowly?

The asthenosphere is the Earth layer that is like plastic and moves slowly. It is part of the upper mantle and consists of semi-molten rock that flows and allows for the movement of tectonic plates. This slow movement contributes to plate tectonics and the shaping of Earth's surface features.
