Iguanas need to live in a habitat that is very warm, so the pet store warms their enclosures with “basking lights” which act as an artificial sun. Describe how the three methods of thermal energy transfer may take place within the iguana’s enclosure.

Sorry I'm late, but here is the answer!

Heat can travel from one place to another in three ways: Conduction, Convection, and Radiation. Both conduction and convection require the matter to transfer heat.  Conduction is the transfer of heat between substances that are in direct contact with each other. Thermal energy is transferred from hot places to cold places by convection. Radiation is a method of heat transfer that does not rely upon any contact between the heat source and the heated object as is the case with conduction and convection. Heat can be transmitted through empty space by thermal radiation often called infrared radiation.

increasing transnational kinetic energy. because the transnational kinetic energy formula consists of only two variables, mass and velocity, increasing one of those properties is the only way to increase an object's transnational kinetic energy. increases to mass and velocity, however, do not have the same impact.
