Review the examples below. Which would be considered an example of convection.

a
a glass of water on a counter at room temperature
b
sunlight warming your face
c
sea breeze moving from the warm beach to the ocean
d
boiling water on a hot stove

c - sea breeze moving from the warm beach to the ocean - would be considered an example of convection. Convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids (liquids or gases). In this case, the warm air above the beach rises and cooler air from the ocean moves in to replace it, creating a sea breeze.
