What else can I help you with?
What would you find in earths upper mantel?
Melted, plasticlike rocks
What color is the earths layer called asthenosphere?
The Earth's asthenosphere is a semi-fluid layer located below the lithosphere. It is composed of solid rock that can flow slowly over time due to high temperatures and pressures. The color of the asthenosphere is not well-defined as it is located beneath the Earth's crust and not visible at the surface.
In which of earths layers do convection currets happen?
asthenosphere
What layer in earths mantle do the plates slide over?
The asthenosphere.
Is the asthenosphere the thinnest layer?
No. The mantle is below the crust (what we live on), which is the thinnest layer of the earth.
What is earths plasticlike layer?
The Earth's plastic-like layer is the asthenosphere, which is a semi-fluid layer of the upper mantle. It is composed of partially molten rock that allows tectonic plates to move slowly over it. The asthenosphere plays a key role in the process of plate tectonics.
What would you find in earths upper mantel?
Melted, plasticlike rocks
What is the order starting from the surface of earths layers?
lithosphere, asthenosphere, mesosphere, outer core, inner core
What is the correct order starting from the surface of the earths layers?
lithosphere, asthenosphere, mesosphere, outer core, inner core
What is the order of the earths layers from the center to the surface?
crust, lithosphere,asthenosphere,lowermantle, outer core, inner core
What color is the earths layer called asthenosphere?
The Earth's asthenosphere is a semi-fluid layer located below the lithosphere. It is composed of solid rock that can flow slowly over time due to high temperatures and pressures. The color of the asthenosphere is not well-defined as it is located beneath the Earth's crust and not visible at the surface.
What causes air to move with the earths surface?
convection
What is the surface on which the lithospheric plates move around earths surface?
Lower mantle is the surface on which the lithospheric plates move around earths surface.
What is the thickness of earths asthenosphere?
300 km
Earths thick plasticlike layer is the what?
Earth's thick plastic-like layer is the mantle. The mantle is a dense, semi-solid layer of the Earth's interior that lies beneath the crust and extends down to the outer core. It is composed of solid rock that can flow slowly over long periods of time.
In which of earths layers do convection currets happen?
asthenosphere
An object that causes craters to form when it collides with the earths surface is called what?
A metior
