Can convection take place in gases?
Yes. In fact, this is how gasses pass along thermal energy. Convection encompasses all types of liquids including gasses.
What materials allows convection to take place?
water/gasses
2 What materials allow convection to take place?
water/gasses
Why convection occurs only the liquid s and gases only but not in solids?
The molecules in solids are not free to move around as they are in liquids and gasses. It's the movement of the molecules that creates the convection currents.
What heat transfer is opening a window in a hot room?
I am not sure but I think it's convection because convection is when Convection is broadly the movement of any molecules through any fluid state, including liquids and gasses. So when you open a window in a hot room you are allowing the fresh cool air from outside to come into the hot room

What is the transfer of heat by the motion of liquids and gasses?
CONVECTION
How is heat transfered in liquids and gasses?
Mostly by convection

Which type of thermal energy transer requires moving liquids and gasses?
Convection requires a liquid or gas.

How does convection happen?
Liquids and gasses tend to expand when heated, this lowers the density, thus warm "air" rises and cool air falls.
Would a gas room heater be convection conduction or raidiation?
it would emit heat in the form of radiation. It will also heat the air which will cause convection. However, these heated gasses will be vented out of the flue so as not to contaminate the air in the room.

What type of heat transfer is roasting a marshmallow in a camp fire?
Convection, and radiation with a small amount of conduction cooks the marshmallow. The primary heat transfer is convection from the hot gasses passing over the marshmallow.
