Option 3 : Zinc-Carbon cell
Primary cells: It is a cell that once it has been discharged, cannot be recharged. Primary cells are called as dry cells because they have solid or molten electrolyte.
These are light in weight and have less cost.
Secondary cells: It is the one that can be electrically recharged after use to their original pre-discharge condition. Normally secondary cells are wet cells.
These are heavy in weight and have a high initial cost.
