Birds use convection by using convection currents the heat will rise as a draft and then birds can ride the draft to reach higher altitudes.

∙ 9y agoBirds use convection currents to fly because of the warm air that rises. When the bird fly over the draft, the bird can ride it to higher altitudes.

What is the relationship between convection currents in the ocean and convection currents in the atmosphere?
Which best explains the relationship between ocean currents and convection currents?(1 point) Responses Convection currents join with the Coriolis effect to create the winds that drive ocean currents. Convection currents join with the Coriolis effect to create the winds that drive ocean currents. Ocean currents rely on warm convection currents to strength the Coriolis effect. Ocean currents rely on warm convection currents to strength the Coriolis effect. Ocean currents create a Coriolis effect that increases convection currents. Ocean currents create a Coriolis effect that increases convection currents. Convection currents use the Coriolis effect to generate ocean currents.
What might cause convection currents in the hot spring?
this is no use
Why potassium permanganate use in convection experiment?
simply because the chemical gives a very dark/strong purple color. You'll be able to see where the convection currents take the chemical in stagnant water when the medium (water) is heated...
How is convection current created?
the dinosaurs go poof as the went into the earths center
Use the particle theory to explain how convection current starts in a fluid?
because it does.
Can you use convection in a sentence?
It was heated by convection currents
What are needed to spread out the wings when the birds fly?
Birds use their wing muscles to spread out their wings when they are ready to fly. Birds use thermal air currents, updrafts, and wind to soar and flap their wings when needed.

How heat travels through convection?
Movement of Thermal energy is by the use of convection currents.
Use the word convection in a sentence?
the earth's convection currents cause continental drift.
How do parachutes use convection currents?
A simple parachute does not use convection currents. Para gliders however do, the pilot uses updraughts to gain height, like eagles do.

True or flase birds use wings and feathers to fly so all birds can fly?
To say that birds use wings and feathers to fly, so all birds can fly, would be false. Not all birds can fly. An ostrich is an example of a bird that cannot fly.
What is a bird doing when he is gliding?
Saving energy for they can use the air currents to fly instead of flapping their wings. Birds usually do this while migrating far distances.
How do birds use magnetism to fly?
They don't, they use wings.
How do birds use the wind?
Convection current move fluids upwards and downwards (like boiling soup) and distribute heat energy. An upward convection current in the atmosphere is called a "Thermal" (which usually have a small cumulus cloud on top) and some species of birds use these to gain height, circling round in them and getting taken up with the rising hot air without having to flap. When they have gained altitude they can then come out of the thermal and glide to the next while hunting or migrating. Using the rising air in the thermals means that they save energy themselves (by not having to flap) and this help them survive.
How does a robin use its wings to fly?
their redbreast attract female birds who make themwant to fly more
