What does heat do when convection currents are moving?
Sinks
Rises
Stays in place
Which picture shows material that is more dense?
The picture of the left
The picture on the right
What causes convection current in the Earth?
The uneven heating on each layer inside the Earth.
The crusts outer layer.
The temperatures we feel outside.
Explain how temperature difference affects convection.
Temperature difference has no effect on convection.
Temperature difference causes the fluid or gas to evaporate.
Temperature difference creates a density difference in the fluid or gas, causing warmer fluid or gas to rise and cooler fluid or gas to sink, resulting in convection.
Temperature difference causes the fluid or gas to become stagnant.
