Question

6. How are convection currents affected by the rotation of the Earth? Tell how convection currents would move if the Earth did not rotate.

Answer 1

if the earth did not rotate, convection currents would move in one straight path, from the equator to the north pole and back again, the rotation of the earth causes this path to be skewed so that currents move in smaller circles between these areas, this is called the coriolis effect.
