Magma is molten rock and while it may rise to the crust and come out in volcanoes, it DOES NOT sink to the core.
Do not think that the deep earth is made of molten rock, it is NOT, the Earth's mantle is solid.
This said, even stuff which is solid flows like a liquid very slowly over Geologic time and the rocks of the mantle do indeed convect. as this happens the Earths continental, surface plates are moved around the planet.
What else can I help you with?
When solid rock in the earths mantle melts it forms a liquid rock known as?
Magma
What layers makes up most earths mass?
The Mantle. It is the largest and thickest layer in the earth. But this answer might not be actually true. Because the earth has all these layers and the mass is added up. -By Olivia Agbo A 12 year old. Thank you for your support.
What happens when two tectonic plates move apart?
Magma seeps up through the two plates from the mantle and form volcanos.
Where is most of the earths new crust found?
Most of Earth's new crust is found along mid-ocean ridges, underwater mountain ranges where tectonic plates are moving apart. This is where magma rises from the mantle to create new crust through volcanic activity.
Does all magma come from the earths core?
No, not all magma comes from the Earth's core. Magma can also originate from the mantle, which is the layer beneath the Earth's crust. The heat and pressure from the mantle can cause rocks to melt and form magma, which can then rise to the surface as volcanic eruptions.
Which of the following is part of the Earths lithosphere SoilMagma None of these Mantle, magma, and soil Mantle?
Mantle is part of the Earth's lithosphere.
What is the rock of earths mantle?
plate tectonic and magma
When solid rock in the earths mantle melts it forms a liquid rock known as?
Magma
When rocks return to earths mantle to earths mantle they can eventually melt and become magma. and are the main factors that control this change.?
heat and pressure
What is the opening on earths surface where magma from the mantle rises and flows out?
Valcano
What is a molten rock from earths mantle?
If it were molten, it would be called magma.
is it true magma forms in the deeper regions of earths mantle?
yes

Does a volcano form when magma reaches earths surface?
That is correct. When magma travels from the mantle to the crust and reaches the surface, that is a volcano.
Magma that breack through the earths curst is called?
Once magma breaks through the earths crust it is called"lava"
Where does magma form before it moves toward the earths surface?
in the mantle above the slab
What happens to plates on the mantle?
Plates on the Earth's mantle are carried around by convection currents from the magma. This happens incredibly slowly.
