Most metals are solids (Mercury is an exception), they are mostly conductive to electricity and heat, frequently are hard, dense, with important magnetic properties, they can form alloys, they form cations in solutions, etc.
Transition metals are the 38 elements that are in groups three through 12 of the Periodic Table. Transition metals include copper, zinc, gold, mercury, manganese, platinum, and chromium.
They are considered to be metals.

elements in groups 3-12 are transition metals
Transition elements occupy central block. They are present between group3 to12.
The early vs. late transition metals differ in their oxidation states (each metal has different possible oxidation states). Electrons have a stronger attraction to the protons in the late transition metals, so the later transition metals form bonds that are harder to break. You can read more about transition metal properties from the links below.Source(s):
In period 2, there are no transition metals.In period 3, there are no transition metals.

Boron is a metalloid, not a metal. Transition metals are metals.
elements in groups 3-12 are transition metals
yes they are. :)
Transition Metals! ^-^ http://chemistry.about.com/library/blperiodictable.htm
D-block elements are also known as the transition metals.
Now actinoids and lanthanoids are considered as transition metals.
yes they are metals
No. Most of the metals listed are not transition metals and most transition metals are not in the list.
Metals from the d-block (by opposition with the inner transition metals).
Transition metals have a complex arrangement of electrons.
