Solution
The correct option is A Solid
Conduction is the mode of heat transfer within a body or between two bodies due to the vibration of the molecules. The bodies through which the heat transfer takes place must be in contact.
In solids, heat transfer occurs predominantly through conduction. This is because solids have molecules packed tightly which makes it easy for them to pass heat. Whereas in liquids and gases, the molecules are spread further apart which makes heat transfer difficult as compared to solid.
