Energy from the sun travels to the earth in the form of ​ (a)   . It warms the waters at the Equator, which then cause the warm waters to rise towards the poles, cool, sink, and return to the Equator. This forms a ​ (b)   current. Then when you step into the water, the heat is ​ (c)   to you.

Match these

• Radiation

• Liquid (or air) heats up, speeds up and spreads out, becoming less dense. As it rises, it cools, slows, and comes back together. This increases density, making it sink again.

• Conduction

• Heat transfers from objects that are touching.

• Convection

• Heat transfers through waves/rays
