multiple choice question
conduction is a transfer of energy that occurs ________.
by the movement of molecules from one place to another
only between metallic objects
through the interaction of molecules
need help? review these concept resources.

Explanation:

Conduction is a mode of heat transfer. In conduction, heat energy is transferred through the interaction of adjacent molecules. Molecules vibrate and collide with neighboring molecules, transferring energy. It doesn't require the bulk movement of molecules (that's convection) and can occur in non - metallic objects (though metals are good conductors due to free electrons).

Answer:

through the interaction of molecules
