How does heat transfer from the mantle relate to the movement of earths crust?

Heat transfer from the mantle creates convection currents that drive the movement of Earth's crustal plates. As hotter mantle material rises, it pushes the crust apart at mid-ocean ridges, while cooler material sinks, pulling the crust down in subduction zones. This movement of the crust is known as plate tectonics.

Would you expect the mantle to be hotter or cooler than the inner and outer cores?

The mantle is expected to be cooler than the inner core but hotter than the outer core. The inner core is the hottest layer of the Earth, while the outer core is composed of molten iron and nickel. The mantle, located between the crust and core, experiences convection currents due to heat from the core, making it warmer than the outer core but cooler than the inner core.


Where is earths Mantle located?
