What is convection mode and what is microwave mode?

In my latest exploration, I delved into the workings of convection and microwave modes in our kitchen appliances. Convection mode is a cooking method where a fan circulates hot air all around the food, cooking it more evenly and quickly. On the other hand, microwave mode uses electromagnetic waves to directly heat the molecules in food, which results in cooking. The former is ideal for baking and roasting, while the latter is perfect for heating and defrosting. It's fascinating how these two technologies transform raw ingredients into delicious meals.
