SSC CHSL 8th June 2022 Shift-3

Asthenosphere

Mesosphere

Troposphere

Exosphere

- The Asthenosphere is the correct answer.

- It lies beneath the lithosphere.

- It's like a thick, slow-moving fluid due to heat and pressure.

- This layer is important for tectonic plate movement.

- The Mesosphere is lower in the mantle.

- It's more rigid and is found beneath the asthenosphere.

- Not known for flowing like the asthenosphere.

- The Troposphere is part of Earth's atmosphere.

- It’s where weather happens, not related to the mantle.

- The Exosphere is the uppermost atmospheric layer.

- It's where Earth’s atmosphere merges into space.
