Final answer:
Convection is the heat transfer by the macroscopic movement of a fluid, conduction is heat transfer through stationary matter by physical contact, and radiation occurs when electromagnetic radiation is emitted or absorbed.
Step-by-step explanation:
Convection is the heat transfer by the macroscopic movement of a fluid. This type of transfer takes place in a forced-air furnace and in weather systems, for example. Conduction is heat transfer through stationary matter by physical contact. Heat transferred from the burner of a stove through the bottom of a pan to food in the pan is transferred by conduction. Heat transfer by radiation occurs when microwaves, infrared radiation, visible light, or another form of electromagnetic radiation is emitted or absorbed.
