The asthenosphere is a layer in the upper mantle that is partially molten and is responsible for the movement of tectonic plates. The mesosphere is a layer in the Earth's atmosphere above the stratosphere and below the thermosphere where temperatures drop with increasing altitude. The two layers are located in different parts of the Earth - the asthenosphere is within the Earth while the mesosphere is part of the Earth's atmosphere.

What are the three parts that make up Earths mantle?

What is the mesosphere made up?

The mesosphere is made up of plenty of things. It is underneath the asthenosphere and the lower part of the mantle. The mesosphere extends from the bottom of the asthenosphere to the earth's core. give me a piture. The mesosphere also means middle.


What layer contains the lithosphere asthenosphere and mesosphere?

The lithosphere, asthenosphere, and mesosphere are all located within the Earth's upper mantle, which is part of the mantle layer. The lithosphere is the rigid outermost layer of the Earth, including the crust and uppermost mantle. The asthenosphere is a partially molten layer below the lithosphere, while the mesosphere is a solid layer beneath the asthenosphere.


What is the Mesosphere in the mantel?

What is the order of the layers of the earth?

The crust, then the lithosphere, then the asthenosphere, mesosphere, outer core, inner core. The mantle is the lithosphere, asthenosphere, and the mesosphere. So the mantle isn't really the middle of the earth.


The strong lower part of the mantle between the asthenosphere and the outer core?

The lower part of the mantle is called the mesosphere.


Is the mesosphere the same as the mantle?

No, although a large part of the mantle forms the mesosphere, the upper brittle mantle is part of the lithosphere and the ductile layer of the mantle below this is formed of the asthenosphere. The mantle below the asthenosphere (i.e. that part from 700 km down to the core-mantle boundary is the mesosphere).


Is the outer core the densest out of lithosphere asthenosphere mesosphere and inner core?

no

What lies beneath the asthenosphere?

Below the asthenosphere lies the solid upper mantle, which is known as the mesosphere. The mesosphere is more rigid and less ductile in comparison to the asthenosphere. At greater depths, the lower mantle is composed of solid rock that gradually gets hotter and denser as it approaches the Earth's core.
