It is the cycle of heating, rising, cooling, and sinking.
Angelica Hirthe
Convection currents are the movement of heat within a fluid due to density differences. Hot fluid rises because it is less dense, while cooler fluid sinks because it is more dense, creating a cycle of circulation. This process is commonly seen in the atmosphere and Earth's oceans, as well as in cooking and heating systems.

Is the correct definition of convection?
the transfer of heat by currents within a liquid or gas
How is the rock cycle related to the movement of earth's plate?

How is the rock cycle related to the movement to earths plated?

What is the relationship between convection currents in the ocean and convection currents in the atmosphere?
Which best explains the relationship between ocean currents and convection currents?(1 point) Responses Convection currents join with the Coriolis effect to create the winds that drive ocean currents. Convection currents join with the Coriolis effect to create the winds that drive ocean currents. Ocean currents rely on warm convection currents to strength the Coriolis effect. Ocean currents rely on warm convection currents to strength the Coriolis effect. Ocean currents create a Coriolis effect that increases convection currents. Ocean currents create a Coriolis effect that increases convection currents. Convection currents use the Coriolis effect to generate ocean currents.
How thick are the convection currents?
The convection currents are in the mantle😱
Convection currents discovered date?
convection currents discovery date
The layer in which convection currents move?
Convection currents move in the Mantle.
Does the liquid in the inner core or outer core flow in currents?
The inner core is solid, but the mantle is the only layer of Earth that flows in currents. These currents are caused by convection. If you don't know what convection is then you might as well look it up because I don't have a good definition.
What direction do convection currents-move?
Convection currents move in upward direction
Do scientists think plates are moved by convection currents or volcanoes?
convection currents.
Do convection currents cause earths heat?
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?
