OpenStudy (destinymasha):

Convection is heat transfer by motion of the gas or fluid which contains the heat. For example hot air rising in a chimney. The heat is being transferred to the top, because the hot air moves from the bottom to the top. Conduction - heat transfer through direct contact - for instance, burning your finger on a stove. Radiation - through no medium at all [sun warming your face]
