Answer: C) conduction

Explanation:

There are three by modes of transfer:

1. Conduction: This type of heat transfer happens when there is direct contact between the two objects and heat is transferred by colliding of molecules.

2. Convection: This type of heat transfer happens when there is a movement of fluid (liquid or gas).

3. Radiation: This type of heat transfer happens when there is direct transfer of energy through space.

the answer is conduction
