  1. A. For heating only
  2. B. For electricity generation only
  3. C. For both heating and electricity generation
  4. D. For transport only

Answer

For both heating and electricity generation

Explanation

The correct option is "For both heating and electricity generation". For both heating and electricity generation is right because it directly matches Energy resources: Compare how different energy resources are used for transport, electricity generation and heating.. The other options are less suitable because they change the required Physics relationship, confuse the relevant energy store or use a distractor that does not answer the question.

Common mistake

Confusing Energy Resource Uses

Students often confuse the uses of different energy resources for transport, electricity generation, and heating, leading to incorrect comparisons.

To fix this, create a table that clearly outlines the specific uses of each energy resource in transport, electricity generation, and heating, and refer to it when making comparisons.
