What is the process called when the mantle pushes plates?
CONVECTION
Does slow movements of mantle rock called radiation transfer heat in the mantle?
You have the mechanism of heat transfer correct but the name for it incorrect! The process where slow movements of mantle rocks transfer heat is known as convection.
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.
What drives the process of plate teconics?
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.
Mantle layer with more convection Mantle layer with less convection?
It's mantle with less, then mantle with more as you go deeper into earth.
What is used to describe the continuous heating and cooling of magma in the mantle?
Mantle convection
What is the process called when the mantle pushes plates?
CONVECTION
Why did the contents move apart?
Because they "float" on the mantle and the mantle undergoes a process of convection.

What is the name of the process that causes mantle movement?
convection currents
Describe the formation of convection currents in the mantle?

Is conduction convection or radiation the way in which the mantle circulates?
The way the mantle circulates is through the process of convection. It refers to the transfer of heat from the Earth's core to the surface.
What drives the process of plate teconics?
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.
The driving force behind plate movement is the process of that occurs in the mantle.?
convection
What process drives the lithospheric plates across the surface of earth?
The lower mantle convection
What is the slow movement of rock called that transfers heat in the mantle?
This process is known as convection.
