Answer:

cold air rising and warm air sinking

Step-by-step explanation:

Convection is well known in nature. During convection, warm particles rise above the surface while cooler particles sink below. Hence a convection current is set up.

Air moves by convection. Hot air rises and moves toward and is then replaced with cooler air. A typical application of convection in nature is land and sea breeze.
