The answer is C C. 0.124764 meters. When a metal (or almost any item save water) is cooled, it shrinks, as the atoms that make it up vibrate less and less and causes the item to contract. The reverse happens when heating, as the atom vibrate faster causing it to expand. Now, even though it would shrink, the shrinkage would not be that noticeable to the naked eye, and thus, the other lengths are just FAR too short to occur.
