Answer:
When sun rays hit the land the land gets heated up. Then the air nearest to the land gets heated up too and it becomes lighter and rises up. The air from higher altitude which is cooler and thus heavier sinks down to fill the space left by warm air. This cycle repeats and convection currents are set up.
