The convection currents responsible for moving tectonic plates occur in which earth layer?
Studentka2010 [4]
Convection currents occur in the MANTLE. The mantle is the second layer of the earth after the crust. The mantle is approximately 2900 km thick. Convection currents are triggered or fueled by the heat from the Earth's core.

The part of the mantle closest to the core gets heated. It then becomes less dense than the layers above so it rises. When this rising plume interacts with the crust it cools and becomes more dense than the layers below and so it sinks and this circular motion continues to form convection currents.

From the standpoint of water availability, which of the four soils; crushed silt loam, aggregate silt loam, fine sand or coarse
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

fine sand

Explanation:

  • Permeability id a scientific index of the soil to have air and water pass through the soil pore and spaces. As clay soils have a fine texture, with loamy soils moderately textured and sandy soils coarsely textured thus permeability changes from slow to rapid.
  • As sandy soil is highly permeable i.e 5.0 cm per hour and clay soils having the least i.e 0.05 permeability. Loamy soil is composed of sand, silt, and a smaller amount of clay.
  • From an agricultural perspective, the soil permeability depends upon the percentage of the see-page and the chemical makeup of the soil. Thus crops can grow more easily this type of soil as the particle size is minute and fine.
