D is the answer..........

Answer:

Option (D)

Explanation:

There are two types of materials.

1. Conductors: The materials which can allow the heat to pass through it are called conductors. For example, iron, copper, etc.

2. Insulators: The materials which do not heat to pass through it are called insulators. For example, plastic, wood, rubber, etc.

Here plastic handle does not feel hot because it is an insulator and it does not allow to pass the heat through it.
