The answer is that the molecules of asolid are held tightly among each other due to intermolecular forces. As, these molecules cannot travel to the source of heat energy, convection is not possible in the cases ofsolids.

the convection is only possible in liquids and gases not in solids as the molecules are tightly packed in solids whereas in liquid and gases the molecular power is not that strong. So when solids are heated they can't rise up like liquids or gases. Hence, solids pass their heat through sources.
Hope it's right
Thankyou
