Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is option C or "they convert chemical energy from gasoline into kinetic energy." Electric motors usually require a power source for example a car, you put gasoline in that car which is converted into kinetic energy which allows the motor to operate and run, (enabling you to drive the car) the kinetic energy is then used into you run out of gasoline.

Hope this helps.
