Heated from the bottom, the warmer substance will slowly rise to the top while the cooler substance at the top falls to the bottom to be heated again. Look at a lava lamp. That is all about convection currents.
The lithosphere is the continental crust, oceanic crust and upper part of the mantle. The convection currents move in the mantle mostly in the Asthenosphere layer under the lithosphere. As the convention currents move it makes the lithosphere spread and shake.
When convection currents flow in the mantle, they also move the tectonic plates located on the Earth's surface. These currents are driven by the heat from the Earth's core, causing the mantle material to rise and fall, which in turn creates movement in the lithosphere. This process is fundamental to plate tectonics and contributes to geological phenomena such as earthquakes and volcanic activity.
The coriolis effect makes ocean currents move in a curved path.
Convection currents in the mantle create plate tectonics.
tectonic plates move by convection currents. Convection currents are currents that start by hot air rising and eventually turning cooler then lowers. This continues in a constant pattern like a week.
Warm currents move from the equator to the poles, and the cold currents move from the poles to the equator. :D
The sun.
Convection currents move in the Mantle.
Convection currents move in upward direction

surface currents moves bcoz
Currents move in a circular patteren because of the strong wind on planet earth.

yes
rotation of the earth
the heat in the core raises and heat raises to a cold spot. so the convection currents raises to the surface of the earth.
