Want this question answered?
Convection currents occur in the mantle of the earth. They can affect the crust and the life above it, though.
Convection currents take place in the mantle.
Convection currents occur in any fluid in which there is a temperature differance. Most convection currents occur in the mantle, the layer of semi-liquid rock below the crust. These currents are the reason behind plate tectonics.
in which earth layers does crusal plate movement occur because of convection cells
Convection currents are the movement of fluid as a result of differential heating or convection. In the case of the Earth, convection currents refer to the motion of molten rock in the mantle as radioactive decay heats up magma, causing it to rise and driving the global scale flow of magma.

no
They occur in the Mantle.Prettyorc345Your welcome! I had the same problem on my science homework :)

The middle of the mantle.
