Final Jeopardy
Explain how convection in the mantle works
and how it moves the tectonic plates
Final Jeopardy Answer
Heat from the core causes magma
to become less dense. It rises
towards the crust (some erupts to
create the mid-ocean ridge). Thje
rest moves sideways and it pushes
the plates apart. The magma cools,
becomes more dense and sinks back
down to repeat the cycle.
