The answer would be A) Conduction. Because conduction is direct contact with the surface of the earth, but is not permanent.

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Conduction is a method of heat transfer, where two objects exchange heat by touching, but does not contribute to moving heat through earth's atmosphere, because the atmosphere is so sparse it does not transmit heat through conduction effectively. Insulation is not a method of heat transfer.

ikadub [295]

Answer:

This is one of the hottest summers America has ever seen and Jeremiah Warren is taking advantage of the heat wave and doing a little cooking…in his car!

It was about 98 or 99 degrees in Texas, so Jeremiah thought he’d head outside to see if it was hot enough to actually cook food.  He buttered up a frying pan on his dashboard and filled it with an egg, cookie dough, a hot dog and bacon (mmm…bacon!).  He set up another frying pan on the sidewalk and a few hours later he came back for a mid-day snack.
