Where would you draw line on the figure to show the bottom of the lithosphere?

I would draw the line at the base of the lithosphere, which is known as the lithosphere-asthenosphere boundary. This boundary separates the rigid lithosphere from the more plastic asthenosphere below it.


The rock samples collected from the bottom of the drill hole came from which earth layer?

The rock samples collected from the bottom of the drill hole likely came from the Earth's crust or upper mantle layer, as drill holes typically do not penetrate beyond the uppermost layers of the Earth's lithosphere. To determine the exact layer, further analysis of the composition and characteristics of the rock samples would be necessary.


What materials would you use to model the lithosphere?

To model the lithosphere, you would typically use materials such as clay, cardboard, foam board, and paint to represent the layers of the Earth's crust. These materials can be shaped and colored to represent the different components of the lithosphere, such as the crust, mantle, and outer core.


Where would you draw a line on the figure to show the bottom of the lithosphere?

I would draw the line at the base of the lithosphere, which is the boundary between the lithosphere and the asthenosphere. This boundary is characterized by a decrease in rigidity and an increase in ductility, marking the transition from the rigid lithosphere to the more plastic asthenosphere below.


When sediments are disturbed the oldest layers are found at the?

In disturbed sediments without layers, the relative age of the sediments would be unknown.

About the asthenosphere?

The asthenosphere has the ability to slow down seismic waves. Is not made up of earths plates that would be the lithosphere.
