Energy transfer does not involve mass transfer, as in the case of a pendulum swinging where the mass of the pendulum does not change. Energy transfer also does not involve generation or destruction of energy, only its conversion from one form to another. Additionally, energy transfer does not involve a change in the total amount of energy in a closed system, in accordance with the law of conservation of energy.
Nonexamples of heat transfer include a chair not getting colder when left outside in winter, a metal spoon not getting hotter when placed in a refrigerator, and an ice cube melting in a freezer.
Some common transfer methods of energy include conduction (transfer through direct contact), convection (transfer through fluid movement), and radiation (transfer through electromagnetic waves). These methods can transfer energy in the form of heat, light, or mechanical energy.
Some examples of different types of energy transfer include conduction (transfer of heat through direct contact), convection (transfer of heat through fluid movement), radiation (transfer of heat through electromagnetic waves), and mechanical energy transfer (transfer of energy through physical movement).
Energy may not transfer to the next trophic level due to inefficiency in energy transfer, loss of energy through metabolic processes, or energy being lost as heat during each energy transfer. Additionally, some energy may be used for movement or other activities that do not result in biomass production.
Some waves can transfer energy only through liquids and solids, but not through gases or vacuum. Some waves, like sound waves, can transfer energy through gases, liquids and solids but not through vacuum. And some waves, notably electromagnetic waves, can transfer energy through vacuum as well as matter.

Nonexamples of insulators include materials that readily conduct electricity or heat, such as metals like copper and aluminum. Other examples are water, graphite, and certain types of ceramics that allow for the flow of electric current or heat transfer. These materials contrast with insulators like rubber, glass, and wood, which resist the flow of electricity and heat.

Not necessarily. Quite often, only part of the energy is transferred. Another part may be wasted, or simply remain in its original form. The details really depend on the specific type of energy transfer.
When you do work on an object, you transfer some of your energy to that object, increasing its energy. This transfer of energy is what allows you to change the object's state or position.
The transfer of energy is called Energy Transfer
No
In general, energy is conserved during energy transfers. However, some energy may be lost as heat due to inefficiencies in the transfer process.
