Between the Earth's crust and outer mantle is a thin boundary region known as the Mohorovičić Discontinuity; scientists usually refer to it as "the Moho". The precise composition and physical nature of the Moho is not known, but it is identifiable by a distinct physical behavior; earthquake P-waves abruptly increase velocity at this boundary. This physical discontinuity was first identified in 1909 by Andrija Mohorovičić of Croatia. The Mojo lies an average depth of 7 km (4.3 miles) beneath the ocean floors, and 30 to 75 km (18 to 46 miles) beneath the continental surfaces. There have been plans and attempts to drill through the Earth's crust to reach the Mojo, but none have been successful up to this point; the research continues.
the mantle, which contains the lithosphere, asthenosphere and the mesosphere
No. The mantle is below the crust (what we live on), which is the thinnest layer of the earth.
The asthenosphere is a plastic layer of rock located in the upper mantle, below the lithosphere (earth's crust and uppermost mantle). It is responsible for the movement of tectonic plates due to its partially molten and ductile nature.
The mantle.
Lithosphere is the layer clostest to the earths crust. It is the layer that contains the sial and sima. Asthenosphere is the next layer clostest to the earths crust. Mesosphere is the inner most layer of the mantle than it goes to the core... Outer core, and inner core.I learned about it in school XD
its called the mantle
It is the mantle.
It is the Mantle.

Crust, Mantle and Core
The earths mantle is one of the four major layers, laying between the crust and the outer core. At 2885 kilometers, it is the thickest layer.
There are several layers between the outer core and the crust mainly combined into one and called the Mantle.
Crust, mantle, and inner core.
The answer is Continental crust.The Mantle is the thickest layer of the Earth. :)
