Answer 2

D) it turns steam when released​

Step-by-step explanation:

In a nuclear reactor, the superheated water leaving turns to steam when released and it in turn is channeled to turn turbines in order to produce electricity.

• A nuclear reaction is used to generate current through a series of processes.
• The reaction produces a significant amount of heat energy.
• This heat energy is used to superheat water and convert it to steam.
• The steam is then channeled to drive turbines whose mechanical rotation produces electricity.
