C)convection

Answer 1

Something Boiling In A Pot Is An Example Of Convection

Answer 2

The correct answer is option C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Radiation is defined as a transfer of energy by the means of electromagnetic waves.

Conduction is defined as a transfer of heat energy from hotter body to cooler through means of direct contact.

Convection is defined as a transfer of heat by the means of the movement of matter(liquid or gas)

In the given situation, the heat is transferred by the means of movement of matter that is water vapors here.
