Myou's Answer: Well my fourteen year old brother brought home homework just the other day with the same question on it, while I do not know the answer the options are

A.) an Earthquake

B.) a focus

C.) a Volcano

D.) a fault

So its not a Asthenosphere. Besides that the Asthenosphere is under the Lithosphere, which makes up the crust and outer mantle. While the Asthenosphere is below the crust and makes up the rest of the outer mantle. So the answer below is just incredibly wrong..

(end of Myou's answer)

ASTHENOSPHERE is a liquid rock [zone of weakness!]
