Which statement best explains why pneumatic cylinders need to be smaller than hydraulic cylinders?

The pneumatic system only needs enough room to have an onloff switch installed in order to operate correctly.
The energy in pneumatic power systems is easily transmitted to gases, which absorb the energy of the system and lower its efficiency
The control of the hydraulic system is much more precise and therefore requires a larger cylinder.
The fluid in a hydraulic system has more mass and therefore needs more storage space.
