What else can I help you with?
What is the partially melted part of earth that carries the crust?
It is called the asthenosphere.
What part of the Earth is in the asthenosphere?
the crust
The asthenosphere is part of which layer of the earth?
The Asthenosphere is part of the Mantle of the Earth
What are the 5 physical layers of the earth?
Inner core, outer core, asthenosphere, lithosphere, and crust.
What is the rigid zone above the asthenosphere that includes the crust and upper mantle?
The rigid zone above the asthenosphere that includes the crust and upper mantle is called the lithosphere. This layer is divided into tectonic plates that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere and move due to the convection currents beneath them.
What is the partially melted part of earth that carries the crust?
It is called the asthenosphere.
What part of the Earth is in the asthenosphere?
the crust
Is the asthenosphere part of the crust of Earth?
No it is notsorry but no:(
The asthenosphere is part of which layer of the earth?
The Asthenosphere is part of the Mantle of the Earth
Is the asthenosphere part of the earths crust?
No, the asthenosphere is not part of the Earth's crust. It is a layer within the upper mantle, located below the lithosphere. The asthenosphere is a semi-fluid region that allows the lithospheric plates to move.
What is a place where the crust of the lithosphere has fractured.?
A place where the crust of the lithosphere has fractured is known as the asthenosphere. The asthenosphere is located below the lithosphere and is where plate tectonic movement occurs.
What is The transition zone between the asthenosphere and the crust?
The transition zone between the asthenosphere and the crust is called the lithosphere. It is the rigid outer layer of the Earth that consists of the crust and the uppermost part of the mantle. The lithosphere is broken into tectonic plates that float and move on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath it.
Why is it that the solid crust stays a float on the athenosphere?
The solid crust floats on the asthenosphere because it is less dense than the underlying semi-solid asthenosphere. This buoyancy is due to the difference in densities between the materials, with the less dense crust able to "float" on the more dense asthenosphere.
Is the crust also the lithosphere?
Not exactly. The lithosphere is the crust and the top of the mantle (down to the asthenosphere).
The crust and part of the upper mantle are known as?
Asthenosphere
Pieces of the lithosphere are?
Earth's Crust, Lithosphere and Asthenosphere
What are the pieces of the lithosphere?
Earth's Crust, Lithosphere and Asthenosphere
