How did the convection model show how Earth’s mantle moves Earth’s plates?

In the model, moving water represented convection currents in Earth’s mantle, and the pieces of paper represented Earth’s plates. The water currents carried the paper pieces toward the sides of the container, showing how mantle movement can move plates across Earth’s surface. The correct choice is “The water carried the pieces of paper to the sides of the container.”
