The movement in the Earth's rock plates is most responsible for **convection currents**. Convection currents in the Earth's mantle create the force that drives the movement of tectonic plates, leading to interactions at divergent and convergent plate boundaries.

Yes, I am sure. Convection currents in the Earth's mantle are the fundamental driver behind the movement of tectonic plates. These currents arise from the heat generated by the Earth's core, causing the mantle material to rise, cool, and then sink, creating a continuous circulation pattern. This process is what ultimately results in the movement of lithospheric plates at divergent and convergent boundaries, among others.
