Question

Convection currents move tectonic plates in two locations as described below:

Location A: Tectonic plates move away from each other
Location B: One tectonic plate is forced beneath another

What statement most likely describes the effects of this movement at each location?

A. Location A creates a volcano; Location B uplifts and forms a mountain
B. Location A uplifts and forms a mountain; Location B creates a volcano
C. Location A creates a gap allowing molten material to seep through; Location B melts and recycles the crust
D. Location A melts and recycles the crust; Location B creates new ocean crust

Answer 1

The answer to this is C.

Answer 2

The statement that likely describes the effects of this movement at each location is C. Location A creates a gap allowing molten material to seep through; Location B melts and recycles the crust.

Convention currents refer to flowing fluid that's moving due to the fact that there is a temperature difference within the material. Convention currents are due to differential heating.

Since the tectonic plates move away from each other in location A, this will create a gap allowing molten material to seep through. Also, since one tectonic plate is forced beneath another in location B, this will lead to the melting and recycling of the crust.
