Answer:

The correct answer is that the system may be equipped with microstructures to reduce the friction of the fluid.

Step-by-step explanation:

Oliver may have implemented a regenerative braking system, decreasing the amount of energy lost in the braking process. He also may have eliminated valves. Valves are highly susceptible to wear in a fluid power system. He may have used an actuator instead.
