What are the main causes of convection currents in the asthenosphere?

density and temperature

temperature and pressure

density and weight

weight and pressure

The correct answer is a) Density and temperature.  

Explanation:

The earth has a mantle between the nucleus and the crust that is divided into the inner mantle that is solid and elastic, and the outer mantle that is fluid and viscous.

In the mantle of the earth, the asthenosphere is identified, it is located below the lithosphere, which is characterized by its solid region and when influenced by high temperature, it becomes a moldable element, also by being closer to the surface of the earth's temperature can be 300 to 500 degrees Celsius.

Therefore, the density and temperature characteristics are the main cause of convection currents in the asthenosphere. Convection currents are distinguished by heat transfers from one site to another through moving fluids.

The convection currents in the asthenosphere are significant because through them, the movements of technical plates that have the function of the formation of mountains and the new life through the changes produced by the convection currents are produced.

    racial conflict and discrimination has existed ever since man learned to kill with rocks and bones. these conflicts arose from disputes between territory, power, wealth, religion, or simple difference. some of the most infamous racial disputes include slavery, the holocaust, and the civil rights movement.

    these listed disputes often resulted in casualties from all sides. riots, wars, imprisonment, and lynching are all commonly associated with racial conflict on severe levels.

      however, racism is an improving issue in recent decades. people are being more accepting and welcoming of diverse populations. though, the world isn't perfect and it will take much more time, if ever, until the world is rid of racism.

i am pretty sure it is d.
