Final answer:

Hydroelectric refers to the energy from moving water, genocide means the systematic killing of a group, nationalistic denotes extreme country pride, and a gorge is a deep valley between mountains.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's match each term with the appropriate definition:

  1. a. hydroelectric: energy produced through the movement of water
  2. b. ravine: a narrow, deep valley typically eroded by running water and smaller than a canyon
  3. c. genocide: systematic mass killing of a group of people
  4. d. nationalistic: having extreme pride in a specific country
  5. e. gorge: a narrow valley between hills or mountains, typically with steep rocky walls and a stream running through it

Now, we match them with their definitions:

  • a. hydroelectric - 3
  • b. ravine - Could be considered similar to 5
  • c. genocide - 1
  • d. nationalistic - 4
  • e. gorge - 2

It's important to note that b. ravine and e. gorge could have very similar meanings and are often used interchangeably. However, a gorge is typically characterized as larger and more dramatic in appearance than a ravine.
