conductor
Water
A material that allows heat or electricity to pass through it is called a conductor. The opposite of that is called an insulator. For electricity, the wire inside is the conductor, while the plastic on the outside is an insulator.
heat is thermal energy. A conductor allows heat or electricity to pass through it.
Note that "electricity" doesn't flow, only current does, which is one aspect of electricity, does. Current is the flow of electrons. A conductor. It lets heat and electrical current easily.

Conductor Some materials are conductors of Heat OR Electricity. But the property is not the same for one material; example glass is a good conductor of heat but a poor conductor of electricity.
Incandescence. The filament is heated by the electricity moving through it, this causes the filament to heat up, and the heat causes the familiar glow.

Metalliods because they are shinny and dull. They are also semi conductors of electricity.
Metallic conductors such as copper, aluminum, silver and gold are some examples of materials through which heat and electricity can easily flow.
A conductor is a substance that allows heat or electricity to pass through. A few examples of conductors are:WaterMetalAir (although not a good conductor is still a conductor)graphiteSalts and solutions of saltsPlasma (ionized gas)Vacuum that contains free electrons or ions
metal and metal and plastic
No, a book is not a conductor. A conductor is a material that allows electricity or heat to flow through it easily, while a book is made of paper or other materials that do not conduct electricity or heat well.
