A Correct answer
Explanation

The solubility of a saturated solution increases upon heating. For instance, if there is some undissolved sugar in a solution of water and sugar, and if it is heated, we find that the undissolved sugar at the bottom of the beaker dissolves. This is because the temperature increases.
