    Answer: The handle of a frying pan on the stove

    Explanation: Convection is the heat transfer done by the movement of a fluid, or the molecules on it. This can happen by the change on density from fluids, when a fluid tempeture rise, it expands, rising his volumen and decreasing his density. When this happens the fluid becomes lighter, so it moves.

    The handle of a frying pan gets hotter but no molecular movement is done. It is between the same material there is a energy transfer from the source to the rest of the pan. This is called Conduction.
