crust
It is an example of heat transfer by convection. Material heated by the outer core slowly moves toward the surface through the solid but plastically-mobile mantle.
Upwelling of hot mantle materials rising to the cooler surface of the mantle. This constant movement, much like water boiling in a pot, creates a current.
The sometimes magnesium rich Mohorovi?i? discontinuity, which often is called simply 'Moho', separates the earth's crust and the cooler part of the planet's mantle.
Heat always flows from warmer objects to cooler objects.

I believe that is convection.

I expect for the mantle to be cooler
the earths Mantle is heated by the lava that is under neath the Mantle
The mantle is hotter than the crust.
