Which statements are true of geothermal energy? check all that apply. it is constantly being produced inside the earth. hot water from hot springs or reservoirs is used in heating systems. it is created by energy from the sun. it can be used to generate electricity. it can be unreliable because it is affected by the weather. the united states is the world leader in generating power from geothermal energy.

The true statements about geothermal energy are:

It is constantly being produced inside the Earth. Hot water from hot springs or reservoirs is used in heating systems. It can be used to generate electricity. The United States is the world leader in generating power from geothermal energy.

Explanation:

Geothermal Energy is known as the energy which are generated and is stored in the Earth. Thermal energy is considered as the energy that 'measures the temperature of matter'. Water or steam will carry over the 'geothermal energy' to the 'surface of the Earth'.

Hahaha good one. you ? & oop

Mantle convection  is the slow  creepingmotion of earth's solid silicate  mantle  caused by  convection  currents carrying  heat from the interior  to the planet's surface.[1][2]  the earth's surface  lithosphere, which rides atop the  asthenosphere  (the two components of the  upper mantle), is divided into a number of  plates  that are continuously being created and consumed at their opposite  plate boundaries. accretion occurs as mantle is added to the growing edges of a plate, associated with  seafloor spreading. this hot added material cools down by  conduction  and  convection  of heat. at the consumption edges of the plate, the material has thermally contracted to become dense, and it sinks under its own weight in the process of  subduction  usually at an  ocean trench.[3]this subducted material sinks through the earth's interior. some subducted material appears to reach the lower mantle,[4]  while in other regions, this material is impeded from sinking further, possibly due to a phase transition from  spinel  to  silicate perovskiteand  magnesiowustite, an  endothermic reaction.[5]the subducted oceanic crust triggers  volcanism, although the basic mechanisms are varied. volcanism may occur due to processes that add buoyancy to partially melted mantle causing an upward flow due to a decrease in density of the partial melt.secondary forms of convection that may result in surface volcanism are postulated to occur as a consequence of intraplate extension[6]  and  mantle plumes.[7]it is because the mantle can convect that the  tectonic plates  are able to move around the earth's surface.[8]mantle convection seems to have been much more active during the  hadean  period, resulting in gravitational sorting of heavier molten  iron, and  nickel  elements and  sulphides  in the core, and lighter  silicate minerals  in the  mantle.
