Answer:

The answer is C

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the cooling curve, segments 1, 3, 5 show a decrease in kinetic energy. During these segments, the temperature decreases and, since temperature is measure of the average kinetic energy of molecules, the average kinetic energy decreases as well.
