explaining convection currents\nwhich statement explains how convection currents affect the movement of plates?\ngravity pulls one edge of a plate down into the mantle, which causes the rest of the plate to move as well.\nheat from earths interior causes lithospheric plates to collide at convergent plate boundaries, causing volcanoes.\nheat from earths interior causes currents of hot rising magma and cooler sinking magma to flow, moving the crust along with them.\nas convection currents drift across the oceans, they bring the pieces of earths crust with them as the supercontinent breaks apart.
Answer
# Brief Explanations:
Convection currents in Earth's mantle involve hot rising and cooler sinking magma which drive the movement of tectonic plates. Gravity - related plate movement is subduction - not directly convection. Plate collisions are a result of movement not the cause of how convection moves plates. Convection in mantle, not across oceans, moves crust.
# Answer:
Heat from Earth's interior causes currents of hot rising magma and cooler sinking magma to flow, moving the crust along with them.
