Answer:
the anodes are cadmium-plated and the cathodes are nickel-plated
Step-by-step explanation:
Nickel cadmium battery works on the principle as by the other cell. There is anode and a cathode which is separated by a separator (spiral shaped inside the case). The anode is negative and is cadmium plated while the cathode is positive and is nickel plated. An electrolyte is also used.
So the correct answer is : "The anodes are cadmium-plated and the cathodes are nickel-plated."
