Where is asthenosphere found? In which form does it exist?
Answers
Explanation:
The asthenosphere (from Greek ἀσθενής asthenḗs 'weak' + "sphere") is the highly viscous, mechanically weak and ductilely deforming region of the upper mantle of the Earth. It lies below the lithosphere, at depths between approximately 80 and 200 km (50 and 120 miles) below the surface.
The asthenosphere
is a layer (zone) of Earth’s mantle lying beneath the lithosphere.
It is a layer of solid rock that has so much pressure and heat the rocks can flow like a liquid.
The rocks are also less dense than the rocks in the lithosphere
It is believed to be much hotter and more fluid than the lithospher
Asthenosphere extends from about 100 km (60 miles) to about 700 km (450 miles) below Earth’s surface.
