The arrows in the pot represent **convection**.
Convection refers to the heat transfer that occurs in fluids (liquids and gases) when warmer areas of a liquid or gas rise to cooler areas in the fluid. In this context, the arrows likely indicate the movement of heated particles within the pot, illustrating how heat is distributed through convection.
