The correct option is C)Warm air rises and takes heat with it;eventually it cools and sinks .

explanation:

There are three main ways in which heat can be transferred:

  • Conduction
  • Convection
  • Radiation

Convection can be described as a process of heat transfer between areas having different temperatures . For example, cold air is more denser than warm air. This is the reason why conventional currents arise due to temperature gradient.
