I just took the test. Ap*x

Answer 2

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Nuclear energy does not have greenhouse gas emissions. The emissions produced by nuclear fission plants are similar to renewable energy sources.The generation of power using nuclear energy does not affect air quality thus providing a clean source of energy.Nuclear energy originates from radioactive material which are harmful to living organisms.
