What is the process called that causes the tectonic plates to move?
Its more ov a movement really not a process. Tectonic plates move due to convection currents in the mantle.
What is Circular movement of material inside Earth's mantle called?
What happens in the asthenosphere (part of the mantle) is called convection currents
The movement of weathered rock material?
The movement of eroded rock particles by wind, water, ice, and gravity is called erosion.
What is the process in which continents slowly move called?
This is tectonic plate movement.
The process responsible for transferring material downslope under the influence of gravity is called .?
mass movement
What is the process of heat transferred in the troposphere called?
convection currents
What is heat transferred by moving air currents called?
convection

Its more ov a movement really not a process. Tectonic plates move due to convection currents in the mantle.
Heat transferred by warm currents within a fluid is called what?
Convection is the movement caused within a fluid by "warm currents". The hotter fluid will rise, pushing the cooler fluid down, which then in turn gets heated, creating a continuous cycle.
The process of changing position during a period of time?
That is called "movement".That is called "movement".That is called "movement".That is called "movement".
Heat can be transferred through a liquid by a process called?
Convection
What are the 3 types of heating?
the 3 types of heat transfer is conduction, convection, and radiation. conduction is when molecules transfer their heat to other molecules when they bump into each other. heat transfers through solids. metals are the best conductors. convection is when energy is transferred by the movement of energy from a hotter, less dense particle to a colder, denser particle. heat transfered through liquids and gases by circulating currents. these currents are called convection currents. radiation is when heat transferred through space. thermal energy is transferred in waves. heat radiation is also called infrared radiation. the sun sends its heat through radiation.

Information on a coding sequence of DNA is transferred into what molecules?
It is first transferred to an mRNA molecule through a process called transcription. The mRNA is then processed, and the information on the processed mRNA is transferred to the amino acid sequence of a protein through a process called translation.
What movement will occur when fresh water and salt water are in contact with each other simulating ocean currents with different densities of water?
The movement of water when ocean and fresh water meet is called Density currents.
What is Circular movement of material inside Earth's mantle called?
What happens in the asthenosphere (part of the mantle) is called convection currents
Which process is currently accepted explanation of the movement of drifting continents?
the convection currents in the mantle under the earths curst is moving the broken plates in earths lithosphere causing the plates slide across the lithosphere. this process is called tectonics. (jon lay wrote this,)
