What is the temperature of the plastic mantle?
The temperature of the plastic mantle, or asthenosphere, is inferred to be about 1600 degrees Celsius.
What is a process occurring in the plastic mantle that is inferred to cause tectonic plate motion?
Nothing
The slow circulation of the plastic mantle in the earths asthenosphere occurs by what processes?
convection
What are three words that describe earths mantle?
It's only soft and plastic in that it is not as hard as the brittle rock of the crust and uppermost mantle.
Why does solid rock in earths mantle melt?
Rocks do not melt in the mantle; however, they may exhibit certain plastic-like or liquid-like properties.
What is the temperature of the plastic mantle?
The temperature of the plastic mantle, or asthenosphere, is inferred to be about 1600 degrees Celsius.
Which layer of the Earths atmosphere is the pressure inferred to be 1.0 million atmospheres?
Stiffer mantle.
What is a process occurring in the plastic mantle that is inferred to cause tectonic plate motion?

How many layers in earths mantle?
there are 7 layers in earths mantle.
Earths middle layer?
the mantle
Partially molten, plastic-like, flowing layer located below the solid part of Earths mantle?
Partially molten, plastic like, flowing layer located below the solid part of Earth's mantle is the Asthenosphere. The asthenosphere is mechanically weak and ductiley deforming region of the upper mantle.
What is the color of the earths mantle?
the earth's mantle is brown
