If there is a fire and you need to get out of a smoky room, the best way to get out is:

• jumping as high as possible to get above the fire

• crawling along the floor because the hot smoke will rise to the ceiling

More dense particles are:

• heavier

• bigger

• farther apart

• closer together

hot and cold particles to new physical locations is called____

• radiation

• convection

• conveyor

• conduction
