Answer 1

Answer:

Its c

A pressurized water reactor does not boil the water!

Explanation:

• There are different type of nuclear power plants, that are used to generate electricity other than the water ,wind and solar electricity generation.

• The nuclear power plants use uranium as fuel that heat the water and the steam generated runs the turbine

• The most common type of nuclear power reactors are :-

The pressurized water reactor

• It heats boils the water to ane extreme temprature but it doesnt boil it that water due to the great amount of pressure it is under  

The boiling water reactor

• the nuclear fission reaction of uranium generates great amount of enegery that is absorbed by the water and it starts to boil , the steam generated runs the turbines
