(TRUE) The statement is $True$.
Heat is not a physical object or a substance that can be stored within a body.
Instead,heat is a form of energy in transit.
It is the energy transferred between a system and its surroundings due to a temperature difference.
Once the energy is transferred,it is stored in the system as internal energy,not as heat.
