the correct pair is (c)Asthenosphere -the origin of convection current
- it is derived from the greek word meaning without strength
- it is the upper part of the mantle
- it is a highly viscous weak layer
- it lies beneath the lithosphere by a depth of 80-200 km
- all the tectonic plates float over this layer.
- it is one of the most unstable layer composed of viscous gases and fluid compressed under the weight of the crust.
- convection currents originate from this layer.
