Solution

The correct option is A I only
When two bodies at different temperature are kept in contact with each other, then both the bodies finally acquire an equivalent temperature via heat flow.
Also heat flows from hotter body to cooler body and gravity has no effect on the heat flow.
Thus only statement I is true and hence option A is correct.
