Answer:

The portion of earth underneath the crust containing the asthenosphere  and mesosphere is outer core and inner core .

Explanation:

The outer core of the earth is ball of very hot metals . Its temperature is hot enough to melt all metals into liquid state . This is mainly composed of the melted metals nickel and iron . This has got got temperature between 4000 degrees to 9000 degrees .

Inner core is underneath the outer core ,Here the pressure is too high and this makes the metals squeezed and not even able to move like liquid . They are forced to vibrate just like a solid . This has got a thickness of 800 miles . The pressure here is comparably 3,000,000 times the air pressure at sea level.

Transmission is the process where all the light that is passed through the material moves via the material without being absorbed. The Transmission depends on the affected radiation.The Transmittance of the medium is defined as the ratio between transmitted radiant power and incident radiant power. The light that is passed through the medium and not reflected will be either scattered or reflected. The light can be transmitted only through transparent or translucent material. Opaque object does not allows transmission of light.
