The correct answer is C) Water takes long to heat and cool down than other liquids.

It doesn't climb up the sides of a tube any more than other solutions do, and being a universal solvent has nothing to do with radiators. It does however take a long time to heat and cool down since you don't have a 100+ celsius burner to heat it up in an instant.
