How is heat from earths interior transformed to earths surface by convection?

Same as with weather, but in stead of air, you've got molten rock: magma. Hotter magma is less dense than cooler magma (although they're both still quite hot enough to turn you to a crisp, of course), and thus rises towards the surface, where it releases heat into the crust. Having cooled down, it descends towards the core again, where it soaks up new heat, so that it starts to rise once more.

Does heat from the earths interior reaches earth through conduction?
Heat from the earth's interior reaches the surface through a combination of convection and conduction.
Current in earths mantle that transfers heat in earths interior?
It's called the convection current.
What part of Earths interior is inferred to have convection currents that cause tectonic plates to move?
the asthenosphere
What is an example of convection in earths surface?
Not within the surface rocks, but at surface level yes. Air and water both convect.
How does energy from earths interior cause changes to earths surface?
due to volcanics effects and movement of earth which affect the earth surface

Convection currents produce the heat in the earths interior?
False.
What will happen to the convection currents in the mantle if the earths interior cools down?
the convection currents will stop

convection
What is directly linked to heat convection within earths interior?
Tectonic Plate Movement
What part of earths interior is inferred to have convection that cause tectonic plates to move?
the asthenosphere
What part of Earths interior is inferred to have convection currents that cause tectonic plates to move?

What is most directly linked to heat convection within Earths interior?
tectonic plate motion
What would happend to the convection currents in the mantle if earths interior eventually cooled down?
They will stop.
