What layer of Earth can you find convection currents?
Convection currents occur in the mantle of the earth. They can affect the crust and the life above it, though.
Describe the convection currents that occur inside Earth?
Convection currents are the movement of fluid as a result of differential heating or convection. In the case of the Earth, convection currents refer to the motion of molten rock in the mantle as radioactive decay heats up magma, causing it to rise and driving the global scale flow of magma.
Where do convection currents flow in Earth?
Convection currents are found in the plastic mantle in Earth.
Who discovered convection currents?
Arthur Holmes discovered convection currents. He made two contributions on how the planet earth works. He was the very first scientist to understand convection currents in the earth.
What three spheres of the earth do convection currents occur?
in the outside and inside and underneath and between layers
Where in the structure of the earth do convection currents occur?
The mantle.
What are the layers in the earth that convection currents occur?
uh me

What are the names of the region in earth's interior where convection currents occur?
The middle of the mantle.
What layer inside the earth does the convection currents occur?
They occur in the Mantle.Prettyorc345Your welcome! I had the same problem on my science homework :)
What produced convection currents in Earth's atmosphere?

How is the rock cycle related to the movement of earth's plate?

What are convection currents and in which layer do they occur?
no
Do convection currents cause earths heat?
No. Convection currents are the circular motion of earth's wind. If the earth did not rotate, convection currents would not be. Does that make sense?
How do convection currents affect earth?
Convection Currents affect earth by slowly moving the tectonic plates
Where do convection currents flow in Earth?
Convection currents are found in the plastic mantle in Earth.
