If the asthenosphere was made of rigid rock, like the lithosphere, do you think tectonic plates would move the same way? Justify your answer.

No, the reason the tectonic plates move and shift is because they are on a liquid that is able to be moved on.

The earth is made of different layers these are core, mantle and crust.

  • The crust is coolest part and forms the lithosphere.
  • The lithosphere is sold rock and if mantle would be of the same matter then the plates would have never drifted or spread apart.

Hence the conclusion is tectonic plates would never move or earth would be different.
