Conduction heat

Heat that causes a change in temperature of a substance is called conduction heat. Conduction heat is a type of heat transfer that occurs through direct contact between two objects or substances. This is different from the other options, which are all types of heat that do not cause a change in temperature. Latent heat is the heat required to change the state of a substance, such as from solid to liquid. Sensible heat is the heat that can be sensed by touch or measured by a thermometer. Superheat refers to the state of a substance when it is heated beyond its boiling point. Therefore, only conduction heat properly describes heat that causes a change in temperature of a substance.
