How does the process of convection affect the asthenosphere?
This such an easy question...It causes the asthenosphere to move and push against the pieces of the lithosphere... luv,,,Autumn m.
What do convection currents in the asthenosphere cause?
The convection currents running through the asthenosphere are widely believed to be the source of movement of the tectonic plates.
What forces causes the plates to move?
Ridge push, slab pull, and convection.
The layer of rock that has convection currents flowing?
The asthenosphere.
How do convection currents affect the lithosphere?
Convection currents in the asthenosphere helps form subduction zones at convergent boundaries and ridges at divergent boundaries. This slow and continuous convection causes the plates on earth's crust to move.
What causes the convection currents in the asthenosphere?
The convection currents running through the asthenosphere are widely believed to be the source of movement of the tectonic plates.
Why does convection occurs in the athenosphere?
heat from the outer core and the mantle when it drifts up to the asthenosphere it causes convection.

Heat from the earth's interior causes convection currents in which layer of earth?
Convection currents in the magma drive plate tectonics.Heat generated from the radioactive decay of elements deep in the interior of the Earth creates magma (molten rock) in the aesthenosphere.

What forces causes the plates to move?
Ridge push, slab pull, and convection.
The layer of rock that has convection currents flowing?
The asthenosphere.
What is ''plastic'' rock and how does it move?
The asthenosphere, moves with convection
In which of earths layers do convection currets happen?
asthenosphere
How do convection currents affect the lithosphere?
Convection currents in the asthenosphere helps form subduction zones at convergent boundaries and ridges at divergent boundaries. This slow and continuous convection causes the plates on earth's crust to move.
Why are there three convection currents in the asthenosphere?
There way more than that.
For convection currents in the asthenosphere where does the heat come from?
The bottom of the Earth. :)
