Correct Answer: wood is bad conductor of heat


Solution : The correct option is wood is bad conductor of heat.

Tea pots made of metal have wooden handles because wood has low thermal conductivity compared to metal. This design choice ensures that when the teapot is heated, the wooden handle remains relatively cool, allowing for safe and comfortable handling when pouring hot liquid. If the handle were constructed from metal like the rest of the teapot, it would quickly become very hot and pose a risk of burning the user's hand.
