Heat transferred by warm currents within a fluid is called what?

Convection is the movement caused within a fluid by "warm currents". The hotter fluid will rise, pushing the cooler fluid down, which then in turn gets heated, creating a continuous cycle.

How is convection transferred?
Convection is transferred by the larger-scale motion of currents in the fluid.
Is it true that heat transfer by the movement of currents within a fluid is called density?
No, it is not true that heat transfer by the movement of currents within a fluid is called density; it is actually called convection. Density is something else entirely, it refers to weight per a given volume. Of course, density is relevant to convection. Heat causes fluids to expand and therefore to become less dense, and therefore to rise.
What are moving currents of fluid that transfer heat?
Convection
Heat transfer by movement of currents in the fluid?
true
Does the flow that transfer heat within a fluid is called convection current?
Not unless the fluid is flowing due to temperature/density differences.
What currents are they when are transferred within the mantle and fluid?
Convection currents.
Heat is transferred by the movement of currents within a fluid by a process called what?

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.
Is heat source for the convection currents in the mantle the sun?

What is the thermal energy transferred by moving molecules in a fluid called?
Convection
What are circulating currents in a fluid called?
If it is a result of temperature differences, it is called convection.
What are the spaces within the brain?
The fluid filled spaces in the brain are called ventricles. The fluid is called cerebrospinal fluid

What happens to covection currents when a fluid reaches a constant temperature?
As the fluid warms:The currents speed upThen as the temperatures of the fluid equalise (the fluid becomes one temp) the currents slow downWhen the fluid is one temperature the currents stop
