Final answer:

The Earth's partially or totally melted layers include the outer core and asthenosphere. The MOHO lies between the crust and mantle, while continental crust is made of granite and oceanic crust is made of basalt.


Explanation:

Partially or totally melted layers of the Earth: The layers that are either partially or totally melted are the outer core and the asthenosphere. The outer core is entirely liquid, while the asthenosphere is partially molten, giving it a plastic-like behavior.

MOHO: The MOHO, or the Mohorovičić Discontinuity, is located between the crust and the mantle of the Earth. It marks the boundary between these two layers.

Continental crust and oceanic crust: Continental crust is primarily made up of granite, while oceanic crust is mainly composed of basalt.
