14. Answer: Question: Plate Tectonic Causes - 200 The heating, rising, cooling, and sinking of the liquid in the mantle, that flows in a circle, can move the tectonic plates above the mantle, and cause them to push into each other. Exit GameReturn to Jeopardy! What are the effects of convection currents on the tectonic plates?

15. Answer: Question: Plate Tectonic Causes - 300 Two continental plates come together and create mountains, two oceanic plates come together and create a volcano, or a continental plate and an oceanic plate come together and create a volcano.
