1. The act or process of conveying; transmission.
2. Physicsa. Heat transfer in a gas or liquid by the circulation of currents from one region to another.
b. Fluid motion caused by an external force such as gravity.
3. Meteorology The transfer of heat or other atmospheric properties by massive motion within the atmosphere, especially by such motion directed upward.

What is the definition of a convection?
convection is basically the up and down movement in gas and liquids caused by heat transfer.
Compare the ways in which conduction and converction transfer heat in the atmosphere?
By definition convection is the direct contact transfer of heat. Convection is the wavy air above car exhaust.
Is a bowl of oatmeal cooling is an example of conduction radiation or convection?
I don’t understand IM ON A TEST LOL (jk it’s convection losers)
What is a toaster convection or radiation?
convection
The method of heat transfer by vertical motion is called?
convection current
What is the definition for convection boundary?
The boundary of convection
What is the definition of a convection?
convection is basically the up and down movement in gas and liquids caused by heat transfer.
Is the correct definition of convection?
the transfer of heat by currents within a liquid or gas

By definition convection is the direct contact transfer of heat. Convection is the wavy air above car exhaust.
What is the definition of baking?
Cooking by dry heat, as in a convection oven.
What is the definition of a Convection cell?
The transfer of heat through a fluid (liquid or gas) caused by molecular motion.
What is the definition Rising and falling of heated gas?
where the temperature is dropping or increasing! Edit: Convection is the rising and falling of heated gas.
What is the Asthenosphere definition?
The upper layer of the earth's mantle, below the lithosphere, in which there is relatively low resistance to plastic flow and convection is thought to occur.
When the heated part of the mantle rises through the cooler parts this an example of?
Convection
Is a convection current the same as a convection?
Yes. Convection is a type of energy and a convection current is, well, the phrase for its currents. So yeah, convection and convection current are the same.

Does the liquid in the inner core or outer core flow in currents?
The inner core is solid, but the mantle is the only layer of Earth that flows in currents. These currents are caused by convection. If you don't know what convection is then you might as well look it up because I don't have a good definition.
