The Earth is made up of several layers, divided by sub-layers, divided by even more sub-layers. There is the core, which is mostly made up of solid iron; the outer core which is up to 10% liquid so still contains a lot of solid rock; the lower mantle which is ductile (solid rock that is not completely melted but still solid in a 'plastic' state), the upper mantle which consists of crystalline forms of olivine and pyroxenes among some other solid materials, and then the crust which on average is about 40 km thick. Whereas the crust is made of solid rock, there are other layers that are solid rock as well.

What layer of earth is made of solid rock?
The lithosphere
What layer is made up of solid rock?
The Lithosphere and/or Crust
What is the solid layer of rock beneath the solid?
== == This layer is called bedrock.
What layer of the Earth is mostly solid rock?
The lithosphere is the physical layer of hard brittle rock. The remainder of the mantle that is not contained in the lithosphere is the layer of ductile rock.
Solid layer of rock beneath soil?
Bedrock
What layer of earth is made of solid rock?
The lithosphere
What layer of the Earth is made of solid rock and squish molten rock?
the crust is made up of solid rock and mantle is made up of molten rocks
What layer is made up of solid rock?
The Lithosphere and/or Crust
The layer made of solid rock that slowly flows?
asthenosphere
What layer of the earth is made up of solid rock soil and minerals?
The second layer
A Solid layer of rock under the soil is called?
This layer of solid rock is called bedrock.
What is the solid layer of rock beneath the solid?
== == This layer is called bedrock.
What layer of earth is made of melted rock and solid?
the inner core
What do you call the solid metal layer?
cool solid rock
What is the layer of solid rock found under the solid?
bedrock
What layer of the earth is the solid rock layer?
The lithosphere is the physical layer of hard brittle rock. The remainder of the mantle that is not contained in the lithosphere is the layer of ductile rock.
Which earth layer is made up of liquid rock?
No layer is truly made of liquid rock. The mantle is sometimes, inaccurately, said to be liquid rock when it is in fact solid, albeit relatively soft. The outer core is liquid, but it consists of liquid metal, not rock.
