Heat from the earth's interior reaches the surface through a combination of convection and conduction.

highlight factors which show that heat from the sun does reach th earth surface by convection
it comes from earths interior heat
Earth's surface is free to radiate heat into space. The interior is not. The interior does transfer heat the the surface, but rather slowly. It is hot due to residual heat from Earth's formation and from the heat generated by the decay of radioactive elements.
Beneath the surface of the earth temperature remains the same. Within the Earth, irregular convection cells within the mantle transfer heat from the core to the surface of the planet. Volcanoes and earthquakes are two examples of heat transferring from the interior to the surface.

False.
False.
it comes from earths interior heat
It's called the convection current.

the heat and pressure in the interior is not designed to sustain human life
