Question 23 • (AG Q3) Science 8: 25-26 (ELux)

Where could convection currents form?

Answer
A
in a sand dune
B
on a pavement
C
in the atmosphere
D
in outer space

Explanation

Convection currents form in fluids, such as liquids and gases, when warmer, less-dense material rises and cooler, denser material sinks. The atmosphere is a gas, so it can develop convection currents. A sand dune and pavement are solids, and outer space is nearly a vacuum.
