B) The convection of the mantle is a product of the transfer of heat from the core to the lower mantle.
C) The convection of the mantle is the result of the radioactive decay of nickel occurring within the core.
D) The heat is the frictional heat from the rotating fluids within the core of the Earth which rises up into the mantle.
