🔬 Science Element

Heat moves in three main ways. Conduction transfers heat through direct contact, like a metal spoon warming in hot soup. Convection moves heat through fluids as warm air or water rises and cool air or water sinks. Radiation sends heat through empty space as invisible waves, like warmth felt from the Sun or a fire.
