Answer:

When there is heat at the bottom of this air or water, the air or water molecules in contact with the heat start to move, and the molecules spread apart. The heated air or water becomes less dense. It rises up until it gets to air or water with the same density as it has, and when it gets there, it pushes the air or water that was there out of the way. At the same time, new air or water fills the space that was vacated when the heated molecules rose up. The air or water that gets pushed out of the way falls down. This sets up a circular motion. Air or water is heated at the bottom, travels to the top, cools, gets denser, falls, is heated again and the whole cycle starts again. Convection does not occur in space because there is no gravity. Ovens work by convection. The heating coils at the bottom of the oven heat the air which climbs to the top, cools slightly, and falls down again.

A scientist wants to predict the effect of rise of global air temperature on sea level around the world which method a controlle

Verizon [17]

A scientific model is a simplified version of some phenomenon that takes place in natural systems. A scientific model can be visual (flow charts), graphical, conceptual, or mathematical. These models are used to make predictions about how a set of conditions would change the present scenario in future. Scientific models can explain how the ongoing changes in the environment can show long term affect on our planet like the climate change. Therefore, a scientific model can be used to explain the phenomena like the effect of global air temperatures on the mean sea level around the world.
