A marble tile would feel cold as compared to a wooden tile

A marble tile would feel cold as compared to a wooden tile on a winter morning, because the marble tile

1. is a better conductor of heat than the wooden tile.
2. is polished while wooden tile is not polished.
3. reflects more heat than wooden tile.
4. is a poor conductor of heat than the wooden tile.
