The correct answer is:
✅ Conduction
Why?
Conduction is heat loss through direct contact with a colder surface (e.g., sitting on a chilly chair or touching ice).
How it works: Heat transfers from your warmer body to the cooler object until temperatures equalize.
Other Heat Loss Mechanisms:
Convection: Heat loss to surrounding air/water (e.g., wind chilling your skin).
Radiation: Heat emitted as infrared waves (e.g., feeling cold near a window in winter).
Fun Fact: Metal feels colder than wood at the same temperature because it conducts heat faster! ❄️🔬
Stay warm: Insulating layers reduce conductive heat loss! 🧥✨
