At a depth of 6000 km, you are in the

• lithosphere

• stiffer mantle

• outer core

• inner core

If the interior temperature is approximately 5000 degrees C, you are at the boundary between

• lithosphere and asthenosphere

• asthenosphere and stiffer mantle

• stiffer mantle and outer core

• outer core and inner core

Density = 5.5

• stiffer mantle

• outer core

• inner core

This layer is liquid
