Solution

Dear student, The convection currents tend 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. ... Due to this temperature difference, the hot fluids tend to rise, whereas cold fluids tend to sink. Thus, the convection current arises at the place till it acquires a constant temperature. Regards
