Abstract: We give two different simple proofs for the removable singularities of the heat equation in $(\Omega\setminus\{x_0\})\times (0,T)$ , where $x_0\in\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ is a bounded domain with $n\ge 3$ . We also give a necessary and sufficient condition for removable singularities of the heat equation in $(\Omega\setminus\{x_0\})\times (0,T)$ for the case .
