Best Answer

conductors conduct (transfer) heat and electricity very well, some exampels would be metals such as gold, copper, etc... insulators insulate (impede/prevent) heat and electricity from traveling through them efficiently or even at all, and some examples are wood, water (keep in mind, water itself is not what conducts electricity, it is the minerals in it), plastic, rubber, etc.
