What is a process occurring in the plastic mantle that is inferred to cause tectonic plate motion?
Nothing
Where do convection currents flow in Earth?
Convection currents are found in the plastic mantle in Earth.
Where in the earth do convection currents occur?
Convection currents take place in the mantle.
Which layer of the earth is the place where convection occurs?
Convection currents rese and sink through the mantle and the liquid outer core. In Earth's mantle, large amounts of heat are transferred by convection currents. Heat from the core and the mantle itself causes convection currents in the mantle.
The driving forces of tectonic plates are related to convection currents in Earth's?
mantle.
How long have convection currents been occurring in the mantle?
14 billion years
Are convection currents related to plate tectonics?
A version of convection currents, occurring in the mantle, is thought to be the force behind plate tectonics.
What is a process occurring in the plastic mantle that is inferred to cause tectonic plate motion?
Nothing
Where do convection currents flow in Earth?
Convection currents are found in the plastic mantle in Earth.
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.
Where in the earth do convection currents occur?
Convection currents take place in the mantle.
Which layer of the earth is the place where convection occurs?
Convection currents rese and sink through the mantle and the liquid outer core. In Earth's mantle, large amounts of heat are transferred by convection currents. Heat from the core and the mantle itself causes convection currents in the mantle.
What does the mantle convection cause?
Mantle convection is the slow motion of the Earth's silicate mantle, caused by convection currents that carry heat from the interior to the surface of the Earth. Mantle convection causes the tectonic plates to move around the Earth's surface, causing earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic activity.
The driving forces of tectonic plates are related to convection currents in Earth's?
mantle.
How thick are the convection currents?
The convection currents are in the mantle😱
Do slow movements of mantle rock called convection transfer heat in the mantle?
Yes. It's true that slow movements of mantle rock called convection transfer heat in the mantle
What causes convection currents it the mantle?
Heat from the core and the mantle itself causes convection currents in earth's mantle.
