Answer 1

Conduction is the movement of heat along a gradient within a solid. So the inner part of the teacup against the hot liquid will transfer that heat to the cooler outer part of the teacup (where it will be lost via thermal radiation). Convection is the movement of molecules of a liquid or gas within itself. So it’s up tell me if I’m wrong please
