How does convection work and what are some examples of convection in everyday life?

Convection is the transfer of heat through the movement of fluids, such as air or water. In everyday life, convection can be seen in actions like boiling water, where heat causes the water at the bottom of the pot to rise and circulate, creating a convection current. Other examples include the circulation of warm air in a room due to a heater, or the movement of hot air rising from a radiator.
