Convection is the transfer of heat by the circulation or movement of the heated parts of a liquid or gas. Examples of heat transfer by convection include water coming to a boil on a stove, ice melting, and steam from a cup of coffee.
An exoskeleton (external skeleton) is common in arthropods like insects, spiders, and crustaceans.
The liver produces bile which emulsifies (separates) fat.
Food is mixed with gastric acid and pepsin in the stomach to help break down protein.
A vibrating object produces a sound wave that travels outwardly from the object through a medium (any liquid or solid matter). The vibration disturbs the particles in the surrounding medium, those particles disturb the particules next to them, and so on, as the sound propagates away from the vibration.
