<u>Answer:</u>

The "asthenosphere" inside of the "earth's mantle" is "not quite liquid or solid, it is similar in texture to toothpaste".

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The "asthenosphere" is the uppermost layer of the "Earth's mantle". This layer in the Earth's interior is said to be responsible for convection. It is mostly comprised up of a mixture of magma which is in molten state and solid Earth material.
  • The convection currents which occurs in the asthenosphere are responsible for the "tectonic movement of Earth's surface plates".

in 1990, world rice production was 350 million tons. in 1999 it had risen to 400 million tons . what was the percentage increase
larisa [96]
In 1990 rice production= 350 million tons 

In 1999 rice production = 400 million tons 


400-350= 50 million ton increase 

50/350=.1428   To calculate the percentage increase you divide the total amount increased by the initial amount to determine the percent. 

Therefore the world rice production increased by approximately 14% from 1990 to 1999.
