The principal advantage of sending electrical power across the country on very high voltage transmission lines is that
A)	the electrical power lost in the wires is greatly reduced.
B)	these transmission lines are less likely to get in the way than low voltage transmission lines (which are much closer to the ground).
C)	they carry much more current than low voltage transmission lines.
D)	they carry less energy per charge than low voltage transmission lines.
