Assuming that the bowl is a perfect insulator, and does not absorb any of the energies involved, then only A is false. No energy is destroyed.

C and D certainly will occur.

If the bowl interacts with the pie and ice cream, then depending on its temperature, it might affect things in several ways.
thank you (:
