The option that describes how heat is transferred by radiation is:
**Sunlight travels through space without the aid of fluids or solids.**
Radiation is the transfer of heat in the form of electromagnetic waves, such as the sunlight traveling through the vacuum of space. The other options describe methods of heat transfer by conduction (touch), convection (movement of warm air), and not specifically radiation.
