conduction
C
convection
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Conduction is the transfer of heat energy from one substance to another or within a substance.

Detailed explanation-2: -Conduction heat transfer is the transfer of thermal energy between two objects by direct contact. For instance, a metal cooking pot sitting in a air-conditioned house feels cold when you touch it. This is because your warmer hand loses heat to the colder pot via conduction.

Detailed explanation-3: -Heat transfer through conduction involves the transfer of heat between two materials from surface contact. No matter is exchanged between materials, only energy. This type of heat transfer occurs in solid materials and is caused by the vibrations of particles.
