Question

study the diagram showing the range of temperature in the earths layers. temperature of earths layers depth (km) 410 660 2900 5150 6370 1,000 °c 1,627 °c 2,727 °c 4,727 °c 6,727 °c which temperature most likely corresponds to the asthenosphere? 1,613°c 2,521°c 3,628°c 6,217°c

Explanation:

The asthenosphere is part of the upper mantle, located between approximately 100-660 km depth. Looking at the diagram, the temperature at 660 km is 1,627°C, so the asthenosphere's temperature falls between the surface mantle temp (~1,000°C) and 1,627°C. 1,613°C is the only option that fits this range.

Answer:

1,613°C
