  1. Crust
  2. Inner core
  3. Mantle
  4. Outer core

hintHint:

The layer after mantle is responsible for the magnetic field.

The correct answer is: Outer core


    The correct option is d)Outer core.
    The Earth's outer core is in a state of turbulent convection as the result of radioactive heating and chemical differentiation. This sets up a process that is a bit like a naturally occurring electrical generator, where the convective kinetic energy is converted to electrical and magnetic energy
