Convection is the mode of heat transfer, referring to the transfer of heat energy due to bulk motion of a fluid.



"Convection current" is the name of that bulk motion of the fluid, the transfer of MASS. I prefer to call it buoyantly driven flow. It doesn't flow due to convection, convection is due to if flowing. It flows due to buoyancy in the case of free convection.

What is produced first current or voltage?

current flows as a result of potential difference i.e. in a circuit if there is no voltage difference between two points, no current can flow between those two points. So voltage has to be produced first.
