Solution

The correct answer is c. need less energy to move.

Conduction electrons are more mobile than holes because they require less energy to move. This is due to the fact that they are located in the conduction band of a semiconductor, where energy levels are higher and it is easier for them to move around. On the other hand, holes are located in the valence band, where energy levels are lower and movement is more difficult. Therefore, conduction electrons are more mobile than holes.
