Final answer:

Convection currents in the mantle drive plate movement on Earth's surface.


Explanation:

The motion of the convection currents that occur in the mantle is responsible for driving the movement of tectonic plates on Earth's surface. This convection in the mantle causes plates to shift and interact at different boundaries, such as divergent, convergent, and transform fault boundaries.
