What else can I help you with?
What rests on the astheosphere?
The Lithosphere Floats on top of the asthenosphere because it is less dense.
What place on the earth's surface has the lowest air pressure?
lol
When you take a hot apple pie out of the oven the crust and top eventually cools. What might have cooled the earths surface?
Well what cools it is the atmosphere and the air that we breathe from. The earth's crust is very rocky and it also could be smooth, so when it rains or snows of course the earths land is cold. It is also just like how the matter rises from the center and goes to the top then the matter packs in and then it drops then rises again then comes back up. These are called convection currents.
SI unit that can be used to measure the area of the top surface of liquid?
Ah, measuring the area of the top surface of liquid is a peaceful journey. You can use the square meter (m²) as the SI unit to measure this lovely space. Just imagine the gentle brushstrokes of your mind creating a beautiful picture of the liquid's surface area with this unit.
Why does a water hyacinth float on the water's surface?
The water hyacinth has a large surface area that lays over the top of the water, which distributes its weight and increases its buoyancy sufficient to keep it floating.
Where is top of the asthenosphere closest to Earth's surface?
The top of the asthenosphere is closest to Earth's surface beneath mid-ocean ridges, where tectonic plates are moving apart. This is where the asthenosphere is pushed up towards the surface due to the divergent motion of the plates.
What is the top layer of the earths surface?
crustSOIL
What is earths top surface?
It is called the crust.
What happens when hot magma reaches the top of the asthenosphere?
When hot magma reaches the top of the asthenosphere, it can erupt through the Earth's surface, leading to volcanic activity. This process can create new landforms, such as volcanoes, and release gases and lava onto the surface.
Which type of seismic wave travels on top of Earths surface?
A Surface Wave.
What can be found directly under the plates of the earths crust?
The Earth's tectonic plates lay on top of the outer layer of the mantle. This layer is known as the asthenosphere.
What mechanical layer sits on of the asthenosphere?
The lithosphere sits on top of the asthenosphere.
What layer of soil is closest to the surface?
The top layer of soil, called the topsoil, is closest to the surface. It is the layer that contains most of the organic matter and nutrients needed for plant growth.
Is asthenosphere a plate boundary?
No. The asthenosphere is a ductile layer of the mantle that tectonic plates float on top of.
The asthenosphere is part of which layer of the earth?
The Asthenosphere is part of the Mantle of the Earth
Are tectonic plates part of the asthenosphere or the lithosphere?
Tectonic plates are segments of the lithosphere. They float on top of the asthenosphere.
What Is the theory that the earths lithosphere is divided into tectonic plates that move around on top of the asthenosphere?
A theory that says the lithosphere is divided into plates that move around on top of the asthenosphere is called '' plate tectonics''
