Heat transfer by movement of currents in the fluid?
true
What kind of energy does convection currents transfer through a fluid?
Heat energy.
The transfer of heat by fluid?
The transfer of heat by fluid is convection.
What do conduction convection and radiation mean?
conduction is the transfer of heat between two surfaces in contact with each other convection is the transfer of heat into a moving fluid radiation is the transfer of heat via electromagnetic waves
Transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves?
Yes, yes, go on. What about it ? What is your question ?

What is convective heat transfer?
Convection heat transfer is the transfer of heat by the movement of a fluid.
The transfer of heat by fluid?
The transfer of heat by fluid is convection.
What are the convection currents?
Convection currents transfer heat from one place to another by mass motion of a fluid such as water, air or molten rock. The heat transfer function of convection currents drives the earth's ocean currents, atmospheric weather and geology. Convection is different from conduction, which is a transfer of heat between substances in direct contact with each other.

Transfer of heat by hot liquids and gases?
Convection is the transfer with in the fluid. If a container of hot liquid is touching something then it is conduction. If the heat is travelling through the air then it is radiation.
What are convection currents created by?
Convection currents are the flow of fluid (liquid or gas) caused by the molecular motion resulting from the transfer of heat through the fluid. In meteorology it is the vertical movement of atmospheric gases caused by heat, atmospheric pressure, condensation of water vapor, and other factors.
What is convective heat?
Convection heat transfer is the transfer of heat by the movement of a fluid.
What is heat energy moving in currents?
convection
Is it true that heat transfer by the movement of currents within a fluid is called density?
No, it is not true that heat transfer by the movement of currents within a fluid is called density; it is actually called convection. Density is something else entirely, it refers to weight per a given volume. Of course, density is relevant to convection. Heat causes fluids to expand and therefore to become less dense, and therefore to rise.
