In Charlottesville, an egg left in boiling water for 10 minutes becomes a firm, "hard boiled" egg. On the top of Mount Everest, with a height of 29,029 feet, an egg left in boiling water remains soft indefinitely. The egg fails to cook on Mount Everest because
(A) water boils at low temperature when the air pressure is very low.
(B) water boils at low temperature when gravity is weak.
(C) water has poor thermal conductivity when its pressure is very low.
(D) an egg cannot get very hot when gravity is weak.
