Question

1. Which layer of the Earth do convection currents occur in? (1pt)
The Mantle.
2. Explain how these convection currents cause the crust of the Earth to
move. (5pts)

Please explain the second question for me!

Answer 1

Answer:

1. convection currents happen in the mantle

2. heated mantle material rises as cooled material sinks causing a convection motion which moves the plates on the Earth's crust resulting in movement of the tectonic plates Earth's crust

Explanation:

the second question is just a rephrased version of "how do convection currents in the mantle conflict with the tectonic plates" you just explain how the convection currents move the tectonic plates.
