Explanation:

Convection is the heat transfer process where warmer, less dense fluid rises and cooler, denser fluid sinks, creating a swirling mixing motion. Conduction is heat transfer through direct contact, radiation is transfer via electromagnetic waves, and transfiguration is not a thermal transfer process.
