Raynaud's syndrome can cause this. It is strongly advised that you see a doctor/research online as well, as this can be remedied with simple applications but may also be indicative of a more serious condition (autoimmune).

How is heat being transfered when you place your finger in the cold beaker why?

If the beaker has a cold water, or something else cold, in it than the heat that is in our finger will run out of you finger into the cold water. This leaves your finger 'empty' of heat, giving you the sensation of being cold. You need to remember that only heat moves. When you are cold you wear a jumper that keeps the heat in your body, not keep the cool out.
