B Radiation
C Convection
A Conduction

1. Radiation
Why? The Sun's heat travels through space as electromagnetic waves to reach Earth.

2. Conduction
Why? Heat transfers directly from the hot stove surface to your skin through physical contact.

3. Convection
Why? Hot air rises from the fire and circulates, transferring heat to your hands.

4. Conduction
Why? The spoon absorbed heat directly from the hot pot through contact.

5. Convection
Why? The heated water or sauce in the pot moves, carrying heat and causing the macaroni to rise and fall.

6. Radiation
Why? The heat lamp emits infrared radiation that warms the snake without direct contact.

7. Convection
Why? This is the definition of convection: heat transfer via the movement of fluids (liquids or gases).

8. Convection
Why? Warm air rises from floor vents, circulating heat throughout the room as cooler air sinks.

Parent Tip: Review the logic above to help your child master the concept of radiation convection conduction worksheet.
