Answer: Convection.

Step-by-step explanation:

The convention, also known as the Tolin flow, implies thermal energy transfer to liquid and gaseous materials. For example, water can be heated in the upper layers, in which case the lower layers lose density, expand and come to the surface, thus circulating thermal energy in the oceans. This change in heat takes place through a process known as diffusion.
