Answer: Convection

Explanation: in its simplest form is the transfer of heat through circulating air and liquids, this works inside of a hot air balloon by heating the inside of the air with a burner located at the bottom of the balloon, this then makes the air inside of the balloon less dense or lighter than the cooler air on the outside, causing the balloon to float upwards.
