Is The asthenosphere is a region in the earth where magma chambers form?
Yes. That is what the asthenosphere is.
What happens when hot magma reaches the top of the asthenosphere?
When magma reaches the top of the asthenosphere it can start to work its way through the lithosphere, potentially reaching the surface to erupt from volcanoes.
What causes magma beneath the volcano to rise to the surface?
Increasing pressure pushes the magma upwards. This rising pressure can be caused by many different things.
What causes the magma inside a volcano to rise to award the surface?
The molten magma increases in pressure (like a pressure cooker at home) until it is forced towards the surface.
What causes hot plasticlike rocks in the asthenosphere to rise toward the earths surface?
The rock in a rising convection current is hotter and more buoyant than the surrounding rock, causing it to rise.
What makes the magma im the chamber rise?
Because of the asthenosphere.
What is the initial cause of magma formation in the asthenosphere beneath Yellowstone?
the role of asthenosphere in magma generetion
Why does Magma tends to rise toward the Earth's surface?
Magma rises from the asthenosphere to the surface of the Earth. After it reaches temperature upward to 1000 degrees Fahrenheit, the magma starts to rise. Gases also aid in pushing the magma toward the surface, along with the tremendous pressure from the depth at which it originates.

Yes. That is what the asthenosphere is.

Most magma forms in?
asthenosphere
Heat from the earth's interior causes convection currents in which layer of earth?
Convection currents in the magma drive plate tectonics.Heat generated from the radioactive decay of elements deep in the interior of the Earth creates magma (molten rock) in the aesthenosphere.
What forces causes the plates to move?
Ridge push, slab pull, and convection.
In the rock cycle some rock melts and forms magma in the layer of Earth known as the?
Magma could be found occurring in the lithosphere or the asthenosphere, usually originating in the asthenosphere.
