C
hydrology
D
hydrophobia
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Hydroelectric energy, also called hydroelectric power or hydroelectricity, is a form of energy that harnesses the power of water in motion-such as water flowing over a waterfall-to generate electricity. People have used this force for millennia.

Detailed explanation-2: -Hydropower, or hydroenergy, is a form of renewable energy that uses the water stored in dams, as well as flowing in rivers to create electricity in hydropower plants.

Detailed explanation-3: -Water’s Potential and Kinetic energy are used to generate hydroelectricity.

Detailed explanation-4: -Hydro power is nothing but the energy produced with the help of water. Among the given options, tidal power is the hydropower because in this the energy obtained from tides is converted into useful forms of power, mainly electricity.

Detailed explanation-5: -Hydroelectric generating stations produce AC electricity that has about 25 kV of force. It must be converted to DC and transmitted at an even higher voltage to reduce the power losses experienced over long distances.
