C.) Heat transfer by radiation "does not need any matter between the heat source and the heated object"

For Example. - Heat transfer from the Sun does not require any medium in the space to travel into Earth's atmosphere, it can travel in free space (Vacuum)

Hope this helps!

I believe the answer is C.

This is because radiation is emitted. It does not need to be channeled or conducted. So, for this reason, I believe heat from radiation also does not need any matter to conduct it.

Hope this helped. Have a great day!
