I'm taking a test and have to guess the right answer to the question after the article. Article: Warm water freezes more quickly than cold water.

Options: A: the temperature of warm water drops faster than that of cold water B: warm water is heavier than cold water C: warm water has the same temperature as cold water D: warm water is not as useful as cold water
