Question

Assertion(A): Convection currents occur due to the movement in fluid magma.
Reason(R): It occurs due to the difference in temperature between the mantle and solid core.

• A. Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A
• B. Both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A
• C. A is true but R is false
• D. A is false but R is true

Answer 1

The correct option is A Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A

The Convection current is a form of heat transfer which tends to move a fluid or gas particles from one place to another. These are created as a result of the differences occurring within the densities and temperature of a specific gas or a fluid.
