Heat and Temperature

The heat from a lamp allows a lizard to remain warm. This is an example of which type of heat transfer?

• radiation
• conduction
• convection
• insulation

What is the definition of CONDUCTION?

• When heat is transferred from objects like rays of light or electromagnetically.
• a  hot liquid or air that  expands, becomes less dense, and rises or becomes more dense, and sinks.
• When heat transfers from objects that are touching.
• When heat transfers through the heater or AC in your house.

How is temperature related to heat?

• Temperature is a measure of the heat of an object.

• Heat causes a change in the temperature of an object.

• Raising the temperature causes the heat of an object to increase.

• Temperature and heat are two different ways to measure the same thing.
