Answer 1

Answer:

Clay is a poor conductor of heat as compared to wood and bricks. Therefore, clay neither allows the external heat to enter the house in summer nor it allows the internal heat to escape out in winters. Hence, mud houses remain colder in summer and warmer in winter.

Answer 2

Mud house are cooler in summers and warmer in winters as compared to brick houses because the mud is a bad conductor of heat.

• Therefore,in summer the heat present outside the mud house cannot enter the house and in winter the heat present inside the mud house cannot flow outside,so the heat present inside the house cause the warmth in winter season.
