They occur in the Mantle.

Your welcome! I had the same problem on my science homework :)
Convection currents occur in the mantle of the earth. They can affect the crust and the life above it, though.

Convection currents move in the Mantle.
The upper mantle contains convection currents that move the tectonic plates.
Convection currents in the magma drive plate tectonics.Heat generated from the radioactive decay of elements deep in the interior of the Earth creates magma (molten rock) in the aesthenosphere.

This layer is the mantle.
Convection currents rese and sink through the mantle and the liquid outer core. In Earth's mantle, large amounts of heat are transferred by convection currents. Heat from the core and the mantle itself causes convection currents in the mantle.
