You are probably thinking of convection, which is transfer of heat by currents set up by variations in density of the liquid.

The movement of heat through a liquid or gas is called what?
heat moves through liquid by convection. Cold liquid with a higher density is pulled to the bottom of a pot by gravity forcing hot water to the top. As it does this they mix and the cold water is warmed by the hot water.
What happens when an electron moves from a low energy state to a high energy state?
when an electron moves from low energy state to high energy state , it gains energy.
When a substance moves from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration while using energy the processed is term is?
When a substance moves from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration while using energy the process is called active transport.
What happens to energy in a substance when i change state?
As energy is absorbed, the energy moves up to other electron shell levels, but as the energy is released, it goes back to zero (ground state) and the energy is given off as light.
How is active transport different then osmosis?
Osmosis is the diffraction of water through a permeable membrane using no energy, whereas active transport is the moving of particles across a membrane against a concentration gradient. Basically, Osmosis moves water with no energy. Active transport moves particles, in general, with the use of chemical energy like ATP.
How does heat moves through liquid and gases?
Heat passes through liquid and gases through the process called convection. In solids however it passes through the process of conduction.
The flow of energy is called what?
The flow of thermal energy is called heat transfer. It is through the various means of heat transfer that thermal energy moves from one place to another. Heat moves from where it is hot to where it is not. Always. Think it through and it will make perfect sense.
What is a form of energy that moves in waves and can travel through space is called?
It is electromagnetic radiation.
What is it called when heat moves through a liquid?
You are probably thinking of convection, which is transfer of heat by currents set up by variations in density of the liquid.
What determines how fast a liquid moves through a solid?
Viscosity of the liquid
How heat moves through a liquid?
By convection
What is te term for the transfer of energy by A Disturbance that moves through space?
That's called a "wave".
What is a form of energy that moves through wires?
Electricity moves through wires.
How energy moves?
energy move through forces
What is it called when a molecule moves a membrane through a protein channel without using energy?
passive transport
When thermal energy moves from one thing to another it is called?
When thermal energy moves from one thing to another it is called heat energy.
What is the flow of thermal energy call?
The flow of thermal energy is called heat transfer. It is through the various means of heat transfer that thermal energy moves from one place to another. Heat moves from where it is hot to where it is not. Always. Think it through and it will make perfect sense.
