No. Earth's crust does not convect. Convection in the mantle, however can create hot spots and rifting, which can lead tot he formation of volcanoes.

How is the rock cycle related to the movement to earths plates?

How is the rock cycle related to the movement to earths plated?
convection currents convection currents convection currents
What kind of currents drive earths plates?
Convection currents.
What will happen to the convection currents in the mantle if the earths interior cools down?
the convection currents will stop
What activity in the magma causes crustal plate movement?
convection currents. Causes the magma to move the earths crust creating plate movement.
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 are convection currents in water like convection currents in earths mantle?
They both are the same because they are currents that move like waves
How do earths convection currents move?
from plate tectonics
Where in the earths layers are the convection currents found?
Lithosphere
Is the heat source for the convection currents in the mantle for the sun?
The difference in temperature and density is the cause of convection currents in the earths mantle. Convection currents are the flow that transfers heat within a fluid.

Convection currents produce the heat in the earths interior?
False.
