Question

What causes convection currents inside the earth crust? Thank You for Answers hope they help.

Answer 1

.Answer:

Convection currents are the result of differential heating. Lighter (less dense), warm material rises while heavier (more dense) cool material sinks. It is this movement that creates circulation patterns known as convection currents in the atmosphere, in water, and in the mantle of Earth

Explanation:

The Earth's crust is broken up into pieces called plates. The crust moves because of movements deep inside the earth. Heat rising and falling inside the mantle creates convection currents generated by radioactive decay in the core. The convection currents move the plates.

Answer 2

Differential heating leads to convection currents inside the earth crust.

Explanation:

• The convective current in the earth's crust is a result of the heat that is released from the interior of the earth as the lighter less dense and warm material rises and the denser cooler material sinks through its own weight by the process of subduction usually in the ocean trench.  

• This subducting matter reaches the lower mantle and this can trigger volcanism as a consequence of the interplate extension and mantle plumes.

• And this creates the tectonic plates to move around the earth. Often related to the core and mantel boundary and extends to surface form the core.
