What is conduction and how does it transfer heat in the atmosphere?

Conduction is the transfer of heat through direct contact between particles. It transfers heat in the atmosphere by heating up the air molecules in contact with the Earth's surface, which then collide with neighboring molecules and transfer heat energy throughout the atmosphere.

Conduction is the transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves. It transfers heat in the atmosphere by radiation from the Sun.

Conduction is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids. It transfers heat in the atmosphere by the circulation of air currents.

Conduction is the transfer of heat through the conversion of energy. It transfers heat in the atmosphere by converting thermal energy into kinetic energy.

What is the definition of CONVECTION

a hot liquid or air that expands, becomes less dense, and rises or becomes more dense, and sinks.

hot liquid or air that expands, becomes less dense, and rises or becomes more dense, and sinks.

When heat transfers through the heater or AC in your house.

When heat transfers from objects that are touching.
