Convection currents in the Earth's mantle are thought to be responsible for plate motions and therefore can ultimately be considered the cause of earthquakes. Mantle upwelling or mantle plumes are also thought to be the cause of hotpots which cause intra-plate volcanic activity such as that which occurs in Hawaii.
The Collision Zone is a destructive force in the earth's mantle
Yes there are! That's why the plates move! It's caused by convection circulating the magma in the mantle creating currents!
a constructive force is a natural event that helps the earth like wheathering

they are convection currents, caused by the heating effect of the earths core

Convection currents.
the convection currents will stop
No. Convection currents are the circular motion of earth's wind. If the earth did not rotate, convection currents would not be. Does that make sense?
They both are the same because they are currents that move like waves

Geologists have hypothesized that the movement of tectonic plates is related to convection currents in the earth's mantle. Convection currents describe the rising, spread, and sinking of gas, liquid, or molten material caused by the application of heat.
