"As water vapor transfers heat to ice cubes, it forms clear droplets outside the plastic wrap."

Reason: condensation is the change from gas to liquid when the vapor loses heat (transfers heat away) to a cooler surface. The other choices say the vapor "gains heat" (which would be evaporation/heating), so they are not condensation.
