A.

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion

Thermal conductivity is a material property that describes the ability to conduct heat. Thermal conductivity can be defined as " the quantity of heat transmitted through a unit thickness of a material- in a direction normal to a surface of unit area  - due to a unit temperature gradient under steady state conditions".

Both the assertion and reason are correct because the conducting brass tumbler absorbs heat from the body. The hand feels cold when the tumbler is touched.
