Another name for the stiffer mantle is the lithosphere.
Another word for earth's upper mantle is lithosphere.
Yes, the lower mantle is also known as the mesosphere. It is the region of Earth's mantle that lies between the upper mantle and the outer core.
When describing the upper mantle, the term "plastic" refers to the ability of the mantle material to deform and flow over long periods of time under high temperatures and pressures. This plastic behavior allows the mantle to flow and convect, driving plate tectonics and other geological processes.
The crust or the surface.
It is called the lithosphere.
