Answer to Question 1

a. The whole-mantle model, in which cold oceanic lithosphere sinks to nearly the coremantle boundary and stirs the entire mantle
b. The layer cake model, in which the driving forces are the same, but there are two zones of convection: a thin, dynamic layer in the upper mantle and a thick, larger, sluggish one located below
