Yes. The mantle is composed of the plastic mantle, or the upper part, which is partially molten. The stiffer mantle is under it. it is not as molten
Heat transfer by the movement of a heated fluid is called _________?
mantle
lower
The plastic-like part of the mantle is known as the asthenosphere. It is a semi-fluid layer located beneath the lithosphere, composed of partially molten rock material that allows for the movement of tectonic plates.
Mohorovicic discontinuity (or simply Moho)
The asthenosphere is often called the plastic mantle because it is a semi-solid layer in the upper mantle that behaves like a plastic material. This means it can flow and deform over long periods of time under pressure, allowing tectonic plates to move slowly over it.
the upper-mantle rocks are heavier while the lower mantle rocks are semisolid like melted plastic
The temperature of a plastic mantle can vary depending on its usage. When used for heating purposes, the mantle typically reaches temperatures between 200-500 degrees Celsius. It is important to always follow manufacturer's guidelines and safety precautions when using a plastic mantle.
