Solution

The correct option is C Wooden cup
Wooden cup being a bad conductor of heat does not allow heat transfer. So, tea remains warmer for a longer time in a wooden cup. Whereas, silver, aluminium and copper being metals are good conductors of heat. They allow heat transfer through them. So tea does not remain warmer for long time in them.
