How thick are the convection currents?
The convection currents are in the mantle😱
What causes convection currents it the mantle?
Heat from the core and the mantle itself causes convection currents in earth's mantle.
What separates the mantle and core?
convection currents
What are effects of connection currents in the mantle?
The flow of mantle effects convection currents in the mantle. This process happens as hot material within the mantle begins to rise. As it rises, it begins to cool and then sinks. This process repeats as a cycle of convection currents.
Are convection currents found in the upper or lower mantle of earth?
The upper mantle
Where do convection currents flow in Earth?
Convection currents are found in the plastic mantle in Earth.
Where in the earth do convection currents occur?
Convection currents take place in the mantle.
How thick are the convection currents?
The convection currents are in the mantle😱
The layer in which convection currents move?
Convection currents move in the Mantle.
The primary cause of convection currents in Earths mantle is believed to be what?
The primary cause of convection currents in Earth's mantle is believed to be thedifferences in densities of earth materialssubsidence of the crustoccurrence of earthquakesrotation of the Earththis was my test question, the correct answer was A
The driving forces of tectonic plates are related to convection currents in Earth's?
mantle.
How are convection currents in the mantle and in the oceans similar How are they different?
The ocean currents are colder than the currents in the mantle,and the are located in different areas.
Which layer of the earth is the place where convection occurs?
Convection currents rese and sink through the mantle and the liquid outer core. In Earth's mantle, large amounts of heat are transferred by convection currents. Heat from the core and the mantle itself causes convection currents in the mantle.
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.

Scientists think plates are moved by?
volcanos and earthquakes
