Convection is heat transfer by-

The heating and cooling of a fluid

Mittens help keep your hands warm in winter because:

They are conductors of electrical energy.

What is the difference between a conductor and an insulator?

A conductor allows electricity to flow through it easily and an insulator does not.

An insulator allows electricity to flow through it easily and a conductor does not

An insulator is magnetic and a conductor is not

A conductor is magnetic and an insulator is not

Choose the BEST example of convection:
