and mantle.
O
A. convection cell
B. equilibrium cell
O
C. conservation cell
O
D. density cell

Answer 1

Answer: A. convection cell.

• Explanation: The center of the Earth is known as the core, it is situated deep inside the earth, where melted lava is also found. Because of this, it becomes a very hot center of the Earth. It is also known as the powerhouse of the planet.

• Most of the raw sources of minerals and metals are found in the core. The melting point is very high over here and the temperature goes about 1,538 degrees Celcius resulting in drops of iron or metal compounds.

• This geothermal gradient of the planet and the continuous rotation of the Earth thus forms the convection cells and leads to creating a convection current.
