Answer: the answer is C. The warmer object's particles speed up

the cooler object's particles.

Step-by-step explanation: Conduction occurs when a substance is heated, particles will gain more energy, and vibrate more. These molecules then bump into nearby particles and transfer some of their energy to them. This then continues and passes the energy from the hot end down to the colder end of the substance.
