Answer:
▶️This is because bakelite(a form of plastic) is a poor conductor of heat and acts as an insulator for the frying pan's handle. ▶️The body is made up of metal to conduct heat energy (as metal is a good conductor) so that the food would be cooked easily. Hope it helps.

Answer:
Plastics handles of the frying pan made up with Teflon which is a synthetic polymer. And, the wooden handles can be prepared with variety of wood materials, which is a poor conductor of heat and electricity.
If the handle is made up of steel it would conduct the heat powerfully. Thus, we cannot handle the pan with bare hand.
