Answer 1

Answer:

c option is the correct answer

Answer 2

Answer:

d) Heat is a cause and temperature is its effect.

Explanation:

Heat is the amount of thermal energy flowing to a substance. Temperature is the average kinetic energy of molecules present in a substance. In other words, heat is a form of energy transferred to the molecules of a substance. Temperature is the effect of heat. The kinetic energy and hence temperature is increased or decreased when the heat is increased or decreased. So we can say that heat is the cause and temperature is its effect.
