The best answer is c but the phrase "Geothermal Heating" is misleading. The ground is simply a thermal mass which evens out seasonal temperatures. There is no actual heating or cooling done, it's just that a heat pump can be more effective with large ground loops.

C) seems likely although where does the cooling come in? A) maybe the answer expected yet near where I live there is geothermal heating achieved purely through the depth of the drilling. There is no geyser or volcanic activity in Southampton UK. Maybe the questioner isn't aware of this?
A is the correct answer. I believe in practicality, If you live in INDIA, you know it very well, there are only 2 geothermal stations in india.
1. Puga valley, Ladakh
2. One in arunachal pradesh ( i dont remember the name)
Both of them have geysers.
Point C mentions 'COOLING' too, which I think is incorrect. Rest is your opinion buddy ;)
Geothermal heating
A) can only be used in areas with geysers and volcanic activity.
B) is only used as a supplemental form of energy in private homes.
C) relies on constant underground temperature for heating and cooling.
D) is a form of non-renewable energy.
E) contributes to water pollution.
I believe the answer is C, can anyone confirm?
