Answer: The Fluid Outer Core

Explanation: The Earth's magnetic field is generated by a self-exciting dynamo process. It's the electrical currents flowing in the slowly moving iron that generates the magnetic field.

Answer:

liquid outer core

Step-by-step explanation:

Scientists think that the Earth’s magnetic field is generated by electrical currents flowing in the liquid outer core deep inside the Earth. Although it’s liquid metal, it moves around through a process called convection. And the movements of metal in the core sets up the currents and magnetic field.
