Hot and cold water rising and sinking through other water

Correct answer choice is:

Thermal energy is transferred.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conduction is the transfer of thermal energy by a chain of collisions among neighboring atoms and molecules. A container being boiled on a stove is an illustration of conduction. Radiation is the shift of energy by electromagnetic waves, without requiring a means so as air or water molecules.
