Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

The stove burner heats the metal of the pot by conduction. Boiling water convects within the pot. The pot and the water (and the stove burner) all radiate heat. Some of the water turns to steam, carrying heat energy away as latent heat from the rest of the water in the pot.
