Answer:

B. Conduction is the transfer of heat by mass movement or circulation with a substance

Explanation:

The wrong choice is that conduction is the transfer of heat by mass movement or circulation with a substance.

Conduction involves transfer of heat between solid conductors of heat. The two bodies must be in contact with one another.

  • There are three known mechanisms of heat transfer;
  • Conduction
  • Convection
  • Radiation

In convection, heat is transferred by the used of fluids and gases as they move from one place to another using mass circulation.

Radiation does not require any material. They can readily move through space.
