Question

study the image of earths interior. which phrase explains what the arrows show? how convection currents move in earths interior the location of heated material near earths surface where plates move as material cools in the outer core why the densities of materials remain constant at different layers

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Convection currents occur when warmer, less - dense material rises and cooler, more - dense material sinks. In Earth's interior, especially in the mantle, this process is depicted by the arrows. The heated material near the core (not near the surface as in the second option) rises, and as it cools (not in the outer core as in the third option), it sinks. The density of materials changes with temperature and pressure (contradicting the fourth option). The arrows show a circular - like motion which is characteristic of convection currents.

Answer:

how convection currents move in Earth’s interior
