The process is called the greenhouse effect.
The Earth is wrapped in a blanket of air called the 'atmosphere', which is made up of several layers of gases. The sun is much hotter than the Earth and it gives off rays of heat (radiation) that travel through the atmosphere and reach the Earth.The Earth's atmosphere is all around us. It is the air that we breathe. Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere behave much like the glass panes in a greenhouse. Sunlight enters the Earth's atmosphere, passing through the blanket of greenhouse gases. As it reaches the Earth's surface, land, water, and biosphere absorb the sunlight's energy. Once absorbed, this energy is sent back into the atmosphere. Some of the energy passes back into space, but much of it remains trapped in the atmosphere by the greenhouse gases, causing our world to heat up.
This process is called conduction. Heat is transferred from the hotter object to the colder one through direct contact between their molecules.
When objects are in contact, energy is transferred through a process called conduction. Factors that influence this transfer process include the temperature difference between the objects, the materials they are made of, and the surface area of contact.
The process by which heat is transferred through a vacuum by electromagnetic waves is called radiation.
The process by which thermal energy is transferred through electromagnetic waves is called radiation.
Conduction. This is the process where heat energy is transferred through a material by direct contact between particles.
This process is called conduction. Heat is transferred from the hotter object to the colder one through direct contact between their molecules.
Heat transfer between two substances in contact is called conduction because it occurs through direct contact between molecules. In conduction, heat energy is transferred from higher temperature molecules to lower temperature molecules due to their collision and interaction, leading to an equalization of temperature between the substances.
Conduction is the process by which heat is transferred through direct contact between adjacent molecules in a substance.
These substances are called nutrients.
