How can something as large and heavy as a whole continent move around?
tectonic plates move by convection currents. Convection currents are currents that start by hot air rising and eventually turning cooler then lowers. This continues in a constant pattern like a week.
How does uneven heating of land and water cause tornadoes?
Uneven heating leads to convection and thus wind currents. Heating of water leads to evaporation, which moistens the air. As these moist air masses are moved by wind currents number of conditions, such as collision with cooler or drier air, can trigger thunderstorms as the moisture condenses. If the wind varies in speed and direction with altitude it can start some thunderstorms rotating. This rotating can go on to produce a tornado.
How many ATP molecules are required to start glycolysis?
36 ATP molecules can be produced by 1 molecule of glucose. These 36 ATP molecules will complete cellular respiration.
Molecules bound to myosin head at start of cros bridge cycle?
Ca2+
What occurs when molecules are heated in a solid or liquid?
In both cases, the molecules start vibrating faster. This is why temperature is also called "molecular kinetic energy" -- it is how fast molecules are vibrating and hitting each other.

What is convection heating from a campfire?
The simplest answer is: the fire adds heat energy to the air molecules near it. The higher energy molecules start bouncing around faster. When these molecules move away from the fire, they carry the energy (heat) with them.
What happened to warmer material in a convection current?
warmer material will move upward were it cools then fall back to the bottom so it can start the cycle (convection current) once again
What sets convection currents into motion?
If you are heating water in a pan on the stove, the water at the bottom of the pan will warm first. Since warm water is lighter, it will rise, and cool water from the top will flow down to replace it. This is called convection, and will continue until all the water is hot. Convection currents can occur in large bodies of water, in the atmosphere, or beneath the earth's crust. All that is needed is a warmer, lighter fluid below a cooler, heavier one.
How do warm currents start?
they start some where
Where do warm ocean currents start?
ocean currents either worm or cold do not start from a specific place. they happen everywhere
How does the process of convection rely on radiation?
It relys on it because convection are the air currents that have to be heated by something, so you need objects to radiate heat to heat up the air to start the current
How can be avoid convection and migration?
Start by learn English.
Why are covection currents needed?
Geologists believe that covection currents are what causes continental drift. If covection currents never happened and their force didnt move the continents then we'd all live on one large super continent.
What happened to air when heated?
It expands, the molecules become more energized (with the influence of heat) and begin to move more rapidly.
Where do warm water currents start to form?
They start to form when different leveled currents create pressure and the water quickly jutts so create a type of friction which is heat.
How many APT molecules are needed to jump start glycolysis?
Its actually ATP molecules and 2 ATP molecules are need to jump start glycolysis.
