The electrons in the conduction band are free to:
Correct answer: C. Transports charge
- A. Transports vibration
- B. Transports signals
- C. Transports charge
- D. Transports impulses
Explanation
Electrons in the conduction band are free to move and carry an electric charge, contributing to electrical conductivity.

About Physics of Solids
Solids are compared through crystal structure, amorphous arrangement, elasticity, plastic deformation, stress, strain and Young’s modulus. Electrical behavior depends on available charge carriers and band structure, so conductors, insulators and semiconductors must be distinguished from mechanical properties such as strength, stiffness and brittleness.
