Convection currents in the magma drive plate tectonics. Heat generated from the radioactive decay of elements deep in the interior of the Earth creates magma (molten rock) in the aesthenosphere. The aesthenosphere (70 ~ 250 km) is part of the mantle, the middle sphere of the Earth that extends to 2900 km

HEY MATE!!! HERE'S UR ANSWER!!!
_____________________________
QUE:Describe how convection currents occur.
Ans:The phenomenon due to which particles of a medium actually move to the source of heat energy and on absorbing heat energy move away from it, thereby making space for other particles to move to the source of heat energy is called convection. Convection is the phenomena where the particles of the matter move and carry heat with themselves. It occurs only in fluids.
