The relationship between the inner core outer core-mantle lithosphere and asthenosphere
is that the coolest layers are farthest from the core.

The lithosphere is cold and brittle whereas the asthenosphere is hot and dense.
Because of something called Isostacy-the gravitational equilibrium between lithosphere and asthenosphere, such that plates "float" at an elevation that dependes on the thickness and density. EX. Think floating ice cubes
The lithosphere and the asthenosphere.
The asthenosphere is part of the upper mantle directly below the lithosphere.

The lithosphere is cold and brittle whereas the asthenosphere is hot and dense.
The boundary between the asthenosphere and the lithosphere is normally below the Moho (which marks the boundary between the crust and the mantle). The exception to this is below mid-ocean ridges where the moho and the lithosphere / asthenosphere boundary are at the same depth.
asthenosphere
The differences and similarities between lithosphere and asthenosphere are as follows. Lithoshphere is made up of rigid rocks flowing above asthenosphere. Asthenosphere has rocks that are more plastic like because they can flow even tho they are still solid rock. The top part of asthenosphere is the same as the lower part of lithosphere, if the top part of asthenosphere cools it then becomes part of lithosphere. Lithosphere and asthenosphere are both made up of the upper part of the mantle on Earth but Lithosphere is also made up of the crust.

After the lithosphere is the asthenosphere, then comes the lower mantle. After that is the outer core, and then is the inner core.
The lithosphere and the asthenosphere.
lithosphere
The asthenosphere is part of the upper mantle directly below the lithosphere.
The asthenosphere, which is a soft plastic, is between approximately 62 and 124 miles below the surface. It is just below rigid lithosphere.

The difference between the lithosphere and the asthenosphere is that the asthenosphere is the lower part of the upper mantle it behaves like a plastic but flows much more easily than the rest of the mantle. The lithosphere however, includes the entire crust and the uppermost part of the mantle, it is more rigid and brittle and doesn't flow.
