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!]

What else can I help you with?
What is a weak spot in the Earths crust where molten rock comes to the surface?
The mid-Atlantic ridge.
What is a word that means a weak spot in the crust where magma comes to the surface?
In the crust the weak spot we have is the Magma Chamber. But, deep down to the mantle such weak zone is the Asthenosphere.
What is the weak spot in the crust where magma has to come up?
Volcano
What causes magma to flow out of a weak spot in the earths crust?
Magma flows out of a weak spot in the Earth's crust due to the build-up of pressure from the molten rock beneath the surface. This pressure can result from the heat and movement of tectonic plates, creating pathways for magma to rise and eventually erupt onto the surface as lava.
What are earthquakes. How do they occur?
earthquakes happen when sections of the earths crust shift.These shifting parts called plates,are actually pieces of the crust floating on the hot molten interior of the earth. The majority of earthquakes happen along the edges of those plates,and along weak areas of the crust called fault zones

What is a weak spot in the earth's crust where magma has come to the surface?
The answer to this question is called an active volcano.

A Volcano.

What is the weak area on the earth crust?
"Weak" areas of the earth's crust are called faults.
Why is a weak point called an Achilles Heel?
Achilles is a famous greek warrior and his only weak spot was his heel. that's why its called an Achilles heel. it means a weak spot.
How did the tambora irruption happen?
A volcano is a weak spot in the Earth's crust. So when the lava and pressure built up from so many years dormant the weak spot in the Earth's crust couldn't hold it and it just shot up the volcano and spewed out lava.

Why do volcanoes form in certain regions of earth's surface?
A volcano is technically a weak spot in Earth's crust where molten material like magma reaches the surface. Magma is made near the surface by convergent (colliding) or divergent (spreading) boundaries. Most volcanoes form near convergent boundaries where the oceanic plate submerges because of the density of the plate.Also, a hot spot may form a volcano. A hot spot is where magma from the mantle reaches the surface. As the crust moves from convection currents in the mantle, the hot spot is near the crust. Whenever the hot spot passes under a weak spot in the crust, the pressure in the magma is strong enough to push through. As the crust continues moving, the hot spot makes different volcanoes in a row, called an island arc. An example of this is Hawaii.
Why Are Volcannoes Found Where They Are?
majority of valcanoes follow the edges of the tectonic plates, which are the weaker parts of earths crust, therefore volcanoes form durin the crust giving away to the pressure built up. other volcaoes form other places due to weak parts of earths crust
