The layer directly under the Lithosphere is the Asthenosphere. The Asthenosphere is a semi-fluid layer of the Earth's mantle that allows for the movement of the tectonic plates above it. It is hotter and more ductile compared to the rigid Lithosphere.
The layer directly below the lithosphere is the asthenosphere. The asthenosphere is partially molten and allows for the movement of tectonic plates above it.
The layer above the lithosphere is the Earth's crust, which is divided into the continental crust and the oceanic crust.
lithosphere
yes because its under the 2nd layer of crust
Tsunamis do not directly affect the lithosphere, which is the outermost layer of the Earth's crust. However, tsunamis can be triggered by disturbances in the lithosphere, such as underwater earthquakes or volcanic eruptions, which generate the massive waves that can cause destruction along coastlines.
