Solution

The correct option is B conduction
Conduction is the mode of transfer of heat in the form of particle vibration from hotter end to colder end of a body. The particles does not travel along the body, they only vibrate at their respective positions. Thus, it is the primary mode of heat transfer in solids like an iron rod.
