When you touch a hot plate, the transfer of heat from the plate to your hand is called Conduction.

Conduction is the answer you are looking for.

The right answer is Conduction.

Thermal conduction (or thermal diffusion) is a mode of thermal transfer caused by a temperature difference between two regions of the same medium, or between two media in contact, and being realized without global displacement of material (on a macroscopic scale ) as opposed to convection which is another heat transfer. It can be interpreted as the transmission from near to thermal agitation: an atom (or a molecule) gives up some of its kinetic energy to the neighboring atom.

Thermal conduction is a process of internal energy transport linked to molecular agitation and due to heterogeneity of the medium on a macroscopic scale.

How would shoot and root growth be affected by a mutation that caused plants to lose the ability to polymerize glucose into star
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

b) Lateral branch shoots would grow more horizontally and have less of a tendency to turn upward.

d) Lateral branch roots fully embedded in soil would grow randomly upward and downward.

e) Roots breaking the soil surface would grow upward.

Explanation:

Inside the amyloplasts of the common bean the starch granules resemble variously sized cotton balls stuffed into a balloon. Under normal circumstances amyloplasts do nothing more than sit on the bottom of special gravity-sensing cells. When a plant is knocked over, the amyloplasts slide from what was recently the bottom of the cell onto a formerly vertical wall. Somehow, this movement is sensed and relayed to cells that secrete the growth-regulating plant hormone auxin.

Since the plant has lost the ability to transform glucose into the granules. The plant can´t differentiate between up or down because gravity is what causes these granules to settle down.
