Correct Option: B

Temperature is used as a measure for heat in an object by measuring the amount of kinetic energy in the molecules that make up the object. It is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the random molecular motion. Heat is a form of energy that can be transferred from the heat source to the molecules, and it can also change its form from heat to movement. The molecules that gain extra energy will have a higher tendency to move more than the molecules that have not gained the extra energy. Energy of motion is called kinetic energy. When the molecules move or vibrate more, they have a higher kinetic energy, and this is recorded as an increase in temperature. In nutshell, as a body gains or loses kinetic energy its temperature will increase or decrease.
