What else can I help you with?
What are the 2 types of mantle?
the upper mantle(lithosphere)and the lower mantle(mesosphere)
The lithosphere includes all of the?
The lithosphere consists of the crust and the rigid, uppermost part of the mantle.
How is the lithosphere different then the adthosphere?
The lithosphere is defined as the crust plus the brittle, uppermost mantle to which it is attached. The part of the upper mantle called the asthenosphere is ductile, and is the portion of the mantle on which the lithosphere 'floats'. Essentially, it is a difference in the degree of ductility. The lithosphere is brittle; the mantle is ductile.
Is the lithosphere the inner core of the Earth?
No. The lithosphere is the outer part of Earth, consisting of the crust and the uppermost part of the mantle.
Is the lower part of the mantle called the lithosphere or asthenosphere?
The lower part of the mantle is actually names the mesosphere. It is overlain by the asthenosphere which is part of the upper mantle and this in turn is overlain by the lithosphere which is made up of the very uppermost mantle and the crust.
What is part of mantle below the lithosphere called?
The part of the mantle below the lithosphere is called the Asthenosphere.
Which of the following is part of the Earths lithosphere SoilMagma None of these Mantle, magma, and soil Mantle?
Mantle is part of the Earth's lithosphere.
Is lithosphere part of the mantle?
Yes, it is the top part of the Earth's mantle
Is lithosphere part of mantle?
Yes, it is the top part of the Earth's mantle
What is the layer that is part crust and part mantle?
The upper mantle and the lower mantle.
Is the upper mantle part of the lithosphere or asthenosphere?
The The crust and the uppermost layer of the mantle form the lithosphere. The asthenosphere, which is still in the upper mantle, is the next layer down.
Which of the crust mantle core layers are located in the lithosphere?
The crust and uppermost part of the mantle (lithospheric mantle) are located in the lithosphere. The lithosphere is composed of the rigid outermost layer of Earth, including the crust and the solid upper part of the mantle.
What is the uppermost part of mantle?
The Lithosphere.
What the uppermost part of the mantle?
The Lithosphere.
The top part of the mantle and the crust above it form the hydrosphere or lithosphere?
The top part of the mantle and the crust above it form into lithosphere.
What layer is part crust and part mantle?
Lithosphere
What layer is part mantle and part crust?
Lithosphere
