Answer 1

A.) Uses the energy of moving water. Is the correct answer.

Answer 2

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the first option. Hydropower uses the energy of moving water. The most common type of hydroelectric power plant uses a dam on a river to store water in a reservoir. Water released from the reservoir flows through a turbine, spinning it, which in turn activates a generator to produce electricity.
