Solution

The correct option is A

Temperature of A decreases


When two bodies are brought into contact, heat flows from one body to another till their temperatures are equal. Hence the temperature of the body which is at higher temperature decreases and the temperature of other one increases. So the temperature of body A decreases while that of B increases.
