The best answers that identify the heat transfers taking place when turtles sit out on the rocks to get warm are:
1. **Conduction** - This occurs when the turtles are in direct contact with the warm rocks, transferring heat from the rocks to the turtles.
2. **Radiation** - This refers to the heat received from the sun warming the turtles directly without any contact, as sunlight travels in waves.
So, the correct answers are **conduction** and **radiation**.
1. **Conduction** - This occurs when the turtles are in direct contact with the warm rocks, transferring heat from the rocks to the turtles.
2. **Radiation** - This refers to the heat received from the sun warming the turtles directly without any contact, as sunlight travels in waves.
So, the correct answers are **conduction** and **radiation**.
