What is the difference between the lithosphere and asthenosphere? At what depth does the lithosphere- asthenosphere boundary occur? Is this above or below the Moho? Is the asthenosphere entirely liquid?

Explanation:

Difference Between the lithosphere and asthenosphere:

Lithosphere is a solid outermost shell of the earth planet and composed of three layers o crust, mantle and core. The viscous and ductile region that lies under the lithosphere is called asthenosphere. So the difference between both of these layers is

" Lithosphere is a solid layer as it composed of rigid materials and the temperature is relatively cool then that of asthenosphere. Asthenosphere composed of viscous melted material and this region has high temperature and pressure."

Depth of lithosphere & asthenosphere boundaries:

The boundary of lithosphere and asthenosphere lies at the depth of about 100 to 150 km.

Above or below the Moho:

Moho lies at the depth of about 35 Km so the boundary of lithosphere and asthenosphere lies below the Moho.

Is the asthenosphere entirely liquid :

Although asthenosphere has a flowing ability but we can not say that its a liquid. Asthenosphere is composed of melted rocks so it lies in the category of solid. Its a viscous melted material. Its not entirely a liquid.

answer; (wisconsin);

explanation: the badger state. this nickname originally referred to the lead miners, of the 1830s, who worked at the galena lead mines in illinois. these mines were in northwestern illinois close to the borders of wisconsin and iowa. the wisconsin miners lived, not in houses, but in temporary caves cut into the hillsides.
