Does slow movements of mantle rock called radiation transfer heat in the mantle?
You have the mechanism of heat transfer correct but the name for it incorrect! The process where slow movements of mantle rocks transfer heat is known as convection.
Are slow movements of mantle rock called radiation heat transfer?
The movements of mantle rock is a classic example of thermal convection, though there will be some conductivity as well.
What do lithospheric plate movements have to do with convection?
there is convection in the mantle. it causes the plates to move.
Drives the movements of the plates?
Convection currents in the mantle drive plate movements.
What layer drives the movement of plates?
Convection currents in the mantle drive plate movements.
What do scientists think causes movements of the pates?
Convection currents in the mantle.
What is the mantle important?
The mantle is where convection cells are formed. Convection currents help stimulate the tectonic plate movements thus recycling sediments and soil.
What is importance of the mantle?
The mantle is where convection cells are formed. Convection currents help stimulate the tectonic plate movements thus recycling sediments and soil.
What do scientists think causes the movement of Earthes plates?
Convection movements; currents in Earth's interior. Note that a significant part of Earth's interior is liquid.
What drives movement of the plates?
Convection currents in the mantle drive plate movements.
How is convection in the mantle related to the movements of the tectonic plates?
because it moves the crust
How does heat transfer from the mantle relate to the movement of earths crust?
This heat transfer happens by convection.
