Which statement best explains how convection currents can occur in earths mantle?
Earth's rotation causes mantle convention. But you already knew that! :P
Where in the earth do convection currents occur?
Convection currents take place in the mantle.
Current in earths mantle that transfers heat in earths interior?

The driving forces of tectonic plates are related to convection currents in Earth's?
mantle.
In what layer does plasticity and convection occur?
They occur in the upper mantle and the convections come from the inner core but travel to the upper mantle.
