Viscosity is the phenomenon in which a fluid resists its flow due to the friction between its layers. Thus, momentum of the fluid is being transport in it.
Heat conduction and diffusion are other transport phenomenon. Heat conduction is the flow of heat from the region of higher temperature to a region of lower temperature. Energy is being transported in the heat conduction.
Diffusion is the flow of fluids from the region of higher concentration to the region of lower concentration. Mass is being transported in it.
