Radiation is the type of heat transfer that occurs in the form of waves. This transfer of heat can occur through empty space and does not require a medium. Examples include sunlight and heat transfer from a fire.
Convection is the type of heat transfer that occurs in only liquids and gases. It involves the transfer of heat through the movement of the fluid molecules due to differences in their density and temperature.
The process responsible for the transfer of matter and energy in the asthenosphere is convection. This is when heat from the core causes the hotter, less dense material in the asthenosphere to rise, while the cooler, denser material sinks back down. This movement of material creates a circular flow of convection currents that transfer energy and move tectonic plates.
Heat transfer by Brownian motion takes place only in fluids (liquids, gases, and plasmas).
The form of energy transfer that occurs when heat is transferred from one object to another is called conduction.
The slow circulation of the plastic mantle in the Earth's asthenosphere occurs mainly through convection, which involves the transfer of heat and material in response to differences in temperature and density. This process is driven by the heat generated from Earth's core and the radioactive decay of elements within the mantle, causing hot material to rise, cool, sink, and create a circular flow pattern in the asthenosphere.

heat from the outer core and the mantle when it drifts up to the asthenosphere it causes convection.

Mid-ocean ridges transfer energy from the mantle/asthenosphere/lithosphere to the surface. The energy is from the deep Earth.

Heat transfer in liquids and gases occurs primarily through convection, which is the transfer of heat through the bulk movement of the fluid. In convection, the hotter fluid rises and the cooler fluid sinks, creating a circulation pattern that transfers heat. Conduction, the transfer of heat through direct contact between molecules, also occurs in liquids and gases but is less efficient compared to convection.
