Question

Figure A shows the process of convection in the earth’s mantle. How does
it affect the formation of mountains and the temperature in the surface
(ground)?

Answer 1

Answer:

Seafloor spreading occurs at divergent plate boundaries. As tectonic plates slowly move away from each other, heat from the mantle's convection currents makes the crust more plastic and less dense. The less-dense material rises, often forming a mountain or elevated area of the seafloor.

answer of your question

Answer 2

Convection currents carry heat from the lower mantle and core to the lithosphere.

Explanation:

• As tectonic plates slowly move away from each other, heat from the mantle's convection currents makes the crust more plastic and less dense.
• The less dense material rises often forming a mountain or elevated area of the seafloor.
• Convection currents drive the movement of earth's rigid tectonic plates in the planet's fluid molten mantle.
• In places where convection currents rise up towards the crust's surface, tectonic plates move away from each other in a process known as seafloor spreading.
