Hello,
Convection currents in the mantle and in the ocean are similar because they both are responsible for the shaping the Earth's surface. Two forces are behind the movement of Earth's huge land masses. Those forces are convection and gravity.
Convection describes the movement of gasses or liquids due to different temperatures. The convection currents just beneath Earth's crust flow very slowly, causing movement in the plates above them. These currents are different with the fact that they produce different plate movements. Ridge push occurs from the convection currents in the ocean. These occur at mid-ocean ridges, which are elevated higher than the rest of the ocean floor. In contrary, convection causes material in the mantle to flow. Due to combined action of convection currents and gravity, Earth's plates are in constant motion.

Reduction is to bring down the size or value of intensity of a certain thing. Decrease is to decrease or “bring down” of a quantity or to become smaller.
Mutations are like genetic mutations. Say a bird species may usually have a orange beak but one bird was born with blue, that’s a mutation.
Adaptations are things you adapt to like plant species have adapted over the year to receive less and less water to live.
Natural selection is basically ‘killing off’ the weaker ones. Say a bird species has broad wings but mutations happened over time leading them to have small wings that do not allow flight, they may eventually all die off due to that. Extinction is if al those birds were to die off from that mutation.
