Answer 1

The three correct answers for ways in which heat energy leaves the surface of land masses are:

1. Evaporation
2. Conduction to air, which then rises in convection
3. Radiation of infrared energy

Animal activity, plant growth, and glacial motion do not directly contribute to the loss of heat energy from land surfaces in the same way as the other options.
