Which of these is a direct benefit of using fuel cells in cars?

Fuel cells do not need an extra or rechargeable battery to operate the electronics. Fuel cells use hydrogen gas, which can be safely stored in the car’s fuel tank. Fuel cells use hydrogen gas, which is easily distributed throughout the country. Fuel cells are inexpensive to construct and install in cars.

Answer: Fuel cells do not need an extra or rechargeable battery to operate the electronics.

Step-by-step explanation:

The fuel cells are the batteries pe se. The cars do not need an extra battery and the batteries are not rechargeable.

The cells produce the electric power from the combination of hydrogen and oxygen.

Regarding the other choices, fuel cells use hydrogen gas which needs high pressure, resulting in requiring heavy steel tanks and isolation.

Of course the hydrogen gas is not as wideley distributed throughout the country as conventional fuel.

And the tecnology is yet expensive.
