  2. Mantle (Aesthenosphere)
  3. Inner core
  4. Outer core

hintHint:

The second layer inside the earth's surface.

The correct answer is: Mantle (Aesthenosphere)


    The correct option is b)Mantle (Aesthenosphere).
    Convection in the mantle provides a potential driving force for plate motion. The plastic motion of the mantle material moves along the lithosphere plate like the flow of the mountain glacier, and the convection motion in the mantle moves the asthenosphere.
