Like the respiratory system, the circulatory system serves to transport oxygen throughout the body while removing carbon dioxide. In addition, the circulatory system transports nutrients from the digestive system.

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.

Tides are caused by the gravitational interaction of Earth and the Moon.

A substance undergoes a phase transition when it moves from one state of matter to another, for example, when water freezes or boils.

Radiation occurs when electromagnetic waves transmit heat. An example is the heat from the Sun as it travels to Earth.
