Answer:

C. Atomic bombs.

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1938 Otto Hahn and his assistant Fritz Strassman discovered nuclear fission in Berlin. The next year it was explained theoretically by Lise Meitner. That discovery opened up the possibility of nuclear technologies, including weapons like the atomic bombs.

The atomic bombs get their energy from the fission reactions.

I hope this answer helps you.
