mantle.
Tectonic
Mantle convection causes the tectonic plates of the Earth to move slowly. Mantle convection is when heat moves from the mantle to the surface and causes the mantle, and the tectonic plates to move very slowly.
Earth's mantle. These convection currents are driven by heat from the Earth's core, which causes material in the mantle to become less dense and rise, and denser material to sink. This movement of the mantle material pushes and drags the tectonic plates along with it.
Your probably referring to the magma convection currents within the mantle. Like normal heaing and cooling convection currents, the magma ebbs & flows, keeping the tectonic plates in motion.
The mantle is where convection cells are formed. Convection currents help stimulate the tectonic plate movements thus recycling sediments and soil.

The upper mantle contains convection currents that move the tectonic plates.
Yes. It's true that slow movements of mantle rock called convection transfer heat in the mantle

No, convection currents in the upper mantle cause tectonic plates to move.
convection currents
there is convection in the mantle. it causes the plates to move.
Convection currents in the mantle drive plate movements.
