asthenosphere
Tough, brittle solids to weak, putty-like solids
The asthenosphere is the region of the Earth that is soft and putty-like, located beneath the lithosphere. The asthenosphere allows for the movement of tectonic plates due to its semi-fluid state, which allows the plates to slide and move over it.
The asthenosphere is a region of the Earth's upper mantle that is soft and putty-like, allowing for the movement of tectonic plates. This semi-fluid layer lies beneath the lithosphere and facilitates the sliding of tectonic plates over it.
The putty-like layer of the mantle is known as the asthenosphere. It is a semi-solid, ductile layer of the mantle that lies just below the rigid lithosphere. The asthenosphere allows tectonic plates to move and is responsible for the movement of Earth's lithospheric plates.
The layer of the mantle that is solid rock but flows like putty is called the asthenosphere. This layer is located beneath the lithosphere and allows tectonic plates to move due to its partially molten nature.
The property of flowing very slowly in liquid is called viscosity. A liquid with high viscosity flows very slowly, like syrup or tar. A liquid with low viscosity flows quickly, like water.
The asthenosphere is the Earth layer that is like plastic and moves slowly. It is part of the upper mantle and consists of semi-molten rock that flows and allows for the movement of tectonic plates. This slow movement contributes to plate tectonics and the shaping of Earth's surface features.

Oh, dude, Silly Putty is like a super chill substance that can't make up its mind. Technically, it's a non-Newtonian fluid, so it flows like a liquid over time but can also bounce like a solid. So, yeah, it's both solid and liquid, depending on how you look at it.

It's called Silly Putty. Because it's like a putty, but it acts silly. It stretches if you pull it slowly, snaps if you pull it fast, bounces if you throw it on the ground, transfers ink from color comics... just plain silliness.
Sodium Bicarbonate. You can also make a volcano like that. It slowly flows out as it expands.
