When air near Earth's surface is heated, it rises, taking heat with it. The type of energy transfer involved here is called *
Convection, conduction or radiation
Please choose an accurate answer and explain

The heat moves through the atmosphere through the process of radiation.

Explanation:

There are three modes of transfer:

1. Conduction: This type of heat transfer happens when there is direct contact between the two object.

2. Radiation: This type of heat transfer happens when there is direct transfer of energy through space.  

3. Convection: This type of heat transfer happens when there is a movement of fluid (liquid or gas) in which convection currents are produced due to the movement of hot fluid upwards and cold fluid downwards.

Thus heat moves through the atmosphere through the process of radiation
