The correct statement that explains how a convection oven works is:

Hot air is transferred through density differences when cool air rises and hot air sinks.

In a convection oven, a fan circulates hot air throughout the oven, which helps to distribute heat evenly and cook food more uniformly. As the air heats up, it becomes less dense and rises, while cooler air is pushed down, creating a continuous flow of hot air around the food.
