Answer:
Magma is the molten rock below the crust, in the mantle. Tremendous heat and pressure within the earth cause the hot magma to flow in convection currents. These currents cause the movement of the tectonic plates that make up the earth's crust

The theory of plate tectonics suggests that the lithospheric plates move because of convection currents in the semi molten mantle.
