Which of the following is correctly matched?
A)Conduction - molecule-to-molecule heat transfer.
B)Advection - strongly vertical mixing.
C)Radiation - assimilation and conversion of.
D)Convection - strongly horizontal mixing.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Conduction is the transfer of heat between two objects in direct contact, and it occurs molecule-to-molecule. Option B is incorrect because advection refers to the horizontal movement of a fluid or air mass, not vertical mixing. Option C is incorrect because radiation is the emission and absorption of energy in the form of waves, not assimilation and conversion. Option D is incorrect because convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids, which can be vertical or horizontal, but it typically involves vertical mixing.
