In the diagram below, light from the Sun strikes a beach (Z). The beach sand gains heat then warms the air that is immediately above it (X) and the sand that is immediately below it (Y).The warm air rises and is replaced by cool air (W). Which point indicates convective heat transfer? (1 point) Responses X X W W Y Y Z Z Skip to navigation

In the scenario described, convective heat transfer occurs when the warm air rises and is replaced by cooler air. This process involves the movement of fluid (in this case, air) due to differences in temperature and density.
Thus, the point that indicates convective heat transfer is:
W (the cool air that replaces the warm air).
