Hey boyufavour, good to see you again. 1. a) (i) Conduction is the transfer of heat energy through direct contact between molecules. From the Earth's surface, heat is transferred by conduction to the lowest layer of air molecules that are in direct contact with the warmed ground. Convection is the transfer of heat energy by the movement of a fluid (liquid or gas). Once the lowest layer of air is heated by conduction, it becomes less dense and rises, carrying heat upwards into the atmosphere. Cooler, denser air then sinks to replace it, creating a convection current. Send me the next one 📸
