Answer:
The correct answer is Mantle.
Explanation:
"The mantle is the semi fluid, bulky layer of rocks made of minerals like silicates, magnesium oxide, pyroxene, garnet, aluminum, iron, calcium and others that lies in between the Earth’s outer core and the crust.
The temperature of mantle varies from 1000°C to 3700°C.
The uppermost ‘floating,’ semi-molten, ductile weaker part of the mantle is called asthenosphere which lies just below the lithosphere and is responsible for the tectonic movements, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, etc.
