The importance is that the convection current keeps all the nutrients and minerals on the bottom to get mixed in with the plants, water, and animals above.
And some animals cant move on their own such as jelly fish and micro organisms so these convection currents help them move with the heat rising

∙ 13y agoBecause ocean currents circulate water worldwide, they have a significant impact on the movement of energy and moisture between the oceans and the atmosphere. As a result, they are important to the world's weather. The Gulf Stream for example is a warm current that originates in the Gulf of Mexico and moves north toward Europe. Since it is full of warm water, the sea surface temperatures are warm, which keeps places like Europe warmer than other areas at similar latitudes.

How does convection affect the breezes at the ocean?
the sea water heats up or cools down the air so it will make the air sink or rise which is to do with convection.
What is the relationship between convection currents in the ocean and convection currents in the atmosphere?
Which best explains the relationship between ocean currents and convection currents?(1 point) Responses Convection currents join with the Coriolis effect to create the winds that drive ocean currents. Convection currents join with the Coriolis effect to create the winds that drive ocean currents. Ocean currents rely on warm convection currents to strength the Coriolis effect. Ocean currents rely on warm convection currents to strength the Coriolis effect. Ocean currents create a Coriolis effect that increases convection currents. Ocean currents create a Coriolis effect that increases convection currents. Convection currents use the Coriolis effect to generate ocean currents.
What is Major source of energy that powers the convection currents in the atmosphere and ocean?
Vertical convection in both the ocean and atmosphere is caused by uneven HEATing.The source of energy for convection in the ocean and atmosphere is heating from the sun.
How do convection currents affect earth?
Convection Currents affect earth by slowly moving the tectonic plates
Are there convection currents in the ocean?
YES
Where are convection currents formed?
the ocean .
How does convection affect a stir fry?
Food is heated by conduction and convection.
What are some examles of convection?
A convection cell churning near mid-ocean ridges.
What causes convection in the ocean?
warm air
What is the major source of energy that powers the convection currents in the atmospheres and oceans?
Vertical convection in both the ocean and atmosphere is caused by uneven HEATing.The source of energy for convection in the ocean and atmosphere is heating from the sun.
How you think this convection cell might affect the crust material above it?
I think the convection cell might affect the crust because the convection cell is bigger than the crust.
How do you think this convection cell might affect the crust material above it?
I think the convection cell might affect the crust because the convection cell is bigger than the crust.
