What part of Earths interior is inferred to have convection currents that cause tectonic plates to move?
the asthenosphere
How convection currents in the earth's mantle move?
They move because of the heat from the outer core and the mantle.
How does water move through and on top of earths rock and soil layers?
Through condensation and evaporation.
How variation in the heat flow from the earth's interior affect the movement of plates and volcanic activity?
the heat caus the earth to move do to its atraction to the sun
What will happen to the convection currents in the mantle if earth's interior cools down?
Convection currents are transferring heat to the surface through the movement of mantle rock. If the interior of the planet cools, the mantle rock would be too solid to move, and there would be no heat to transfer.
What happens to pressure as you move outward from earths interior?
It decreases.
What part of earths interior is inferred to have convection that cause tectonic plates to move?
the asthenosphere
Does the energy move from earths surface and atmosphere out of space through radiation conduction or convection?
conduction because there is more heat in space then there is in earth
What part of Earths interior is inferred to have convection currents that cause tectonic plates to move?
the asthenosphere
What part of the earths interior is inferred to have convection currents that cause tectonic plated to move?
asthensophere
What changes occur in the composition of the earths interior layers as you move toward the core?
the material is hotter & denser
What changes occur in the composition of the earths interior layer as you move towards the core?
the material is hotter & denser
What sort of energy allows the tectonics plates to move?
The Earths internal heat.
How convection currents in the earth's mantle move?
They move because of the heat from the outer core and the mantle.
What can heat move through?
heat moves through every thing
How does most of the heat in earths atmosphere move from place to place?
Convectionheat moves by, radiation(:
How do Earth and moon move through the space?
they are pulled by the Earths gravity
