Answer:

Option A, A controlled nuclear chain reaction produces heat, driving steam turbines to produce energy.

Explanation:

In a nuclear power plant,  the following processes takes place –

a) Series of nuclear chain fission reaction occur

b) Enormous amount of energy in the form of heat is released during each fission reaction

c) The condenser (heavy water) with in the plant absorbs this heat and converts into vapor.  

d) Water vapor or steam has high velocity which is then used to rotate the turbine connected with generator coil.  

e) Rotating coil  of generator produces electrical energy.

Hence, option A is correct

In plant, cell that transport water against the force of gravity are found to contain many more mitochondria than do some other
Anna [14]
For this question I'm not too sure what you're asking because cells that transport water are basically xylem cells and these cells are hollow with nothing in them, and they transport water against gravity because of transpiration pull, capillary action and root pressure.
The cells that I know of with many mitochondria for transport would be the phloem so that the mitochondria can carry out cellular respiration to release energy for the translocation of sucrose.
