The correct answer is **C. Asthenosphere**.
The asthenosphere and the mesosphere both primarily consist of silicate materials and share a similar composition in terms of minerals, which are mostly made up of peridotite. The mesosphere is part of the mantle below the asthenosphere and shares a similar chemical composition.
