Another difference that can be seen between profession and occupation, is that the former is guided through certain ethical codes, and is regulated by a certain statute. Summary: 1. A profession needs extensive training and specialized knowledge. On the other hand, an occupation does not need any extensive training.
1. One of the confusing concepts of Earth structure is the distinction between chemical layering (crust, mantle and core) and mechanical layering (lithosphere, asthenosphere and mesosphere). The scale model illustrates all of these layers on a single diagram.ne of the confusing concepts of Earth structure is the distinction between chemical layering (crust, mantle and core) and mechanical layering (lithosphere, asthenosphere and mesosphere). The scale model illustrates all of these layers on a single diagram.
The asthenosphere (from Greek asthenÄs (á¼ÏÎ¸ÎµÎ½á½²Ï) 'weak' + sphere) is the highly viscous, mechanically weak and ductilely-deforming region of the upper mantle of the Earth. asthenosphere n: the lower layer of the crust. asthenosphere \asthenosphere\ n. 1. the lower layer of the earth's crust, below the lithosphere. It is estimated as from fifty to several hundred miles thick. It is less rigid than the lithosphere, but still rigid enough to transmit some transverse seismic waves.
