Answer:
Explanation:
Cooler materials are highly dense, causing them to sink to the outer core
This occurs mainly in the mantle and outer core that are liquid/semi-liquid. In both layers, the cooler denser material sink to the bottom of the particular layer, while the hotter material from the bottom rise to the surface. These conditions in the mantle are responsible for the tectonic plate movements.
