1. The layer of planet Earth within which convection occur is: D. Outer core and mantle.

2. Convection moves: C. Heat.

Earth is one of the planets that rotates on its axis and revolves around the Sun.

Basically, the Earth comprises four (4) distinct layers starting at the center and these include:

  • The inner core.
  • The outer core.
  • The mantle.
  • The crust.

Convection can be defined as an energy transfer process which typically involves the transfer of heat, due to the movement of mass. The two (2) layers within which convection occur are:

  • The outer core.
  • The mantle.

Generally, convection is considered to be a more effective and efficient means of heat transport on Earth when compared to conduction.

Additionally, the movement of tectonic plates is as a result of convection current because heat gains pressure underneath the crust.

In conclusion, convection is chiefly considered to be one of the most efficient ways through which heat is transported from the interior (mantle) of planet Earth to the surface (outer core).
