No, Convection does not occur in the Core.
For example, in the Sun, the convection occurs only after the Radiation zone.
In the radiation zone the energy is transported by radiation (ie, by photons).
At about 0.8 solar radius the density and temperature are not enough to
transport the energy by radiation, so convection sets in.

Does hydrogen fusion occur in the corona?
No. Hydrogen fusion occurs in the star's core.
What forms due to the different temperatures of the core and mantle?
convection currents
Where does convection occur?
Convection occurs when and where a fluid is in a gravity field and heat is applied to its base.
What separates the mantle and core?
convection currents
What are convection currents and in which layer do they occur?
no
Where does convection occur on the sun?
The core
Where does the convection occur that causes the Earth's magnetic field?
This happens in the earth's core.
In what layer does plasticity and convection occur?
They occur in the upper mantle and the convections come from the inner core but travel to the upper mantle.
Suns core releases heat by what process?
Our sun release energy by a process called convection. Inside the star, energy is transported towards the surface through radiation, but about 1/3 of the outer layer of the star is markedly cooler than the core and the energy is transported by convection from the core to this layer.
How the convection occur in earth's mantle?
convection occurs in the asthenosphere, which is located under the lithosphere. the inner core heats the liquid mantle and it circles and produces plate tectonic activity.
Does hydrogen fusion occur in the corona?
No. Hydrogen fusion occurs in the star's core.
Where does hydrogen fusion occur when there is no hydrogen left in the core of a star?
If there is no hydrogen left at the core of star then hydrogen fusion cannot occur. What happens in the core of a star before that happens is that helium begins to fuse, and then the other elements going up the periodic table until carbon. And then if the star explodes into a supernova, traces of the higher elements are fused as well.
How is energy transferred from the core to the surface of sun by convection?
By convection
The convention that causes earths magnetic field happens in earths?
core
What happen as thermal energy is transferred from the core to the mantle?
CONVECTION CURRENT is the answer.
Where does fusion occur mostly in stars?
In the core of the star, the heat then spreads out to the surface and is emitted as EM radiation
Which part of the newborn star does fusion occur?
In all stars, the fusion only occurs in the inner core.
