SAMPLE ANSWER
The diagram shows that there are five main stages in the production of electricity through the use of geothermal energy.
The process begins with cold water being pumped from the surface of the earth down into a 4.5 kilometer-deep injection well. From there, it is transferred to the geothermal zone, a subterranean region composed of hot rocks, before reaching the production well, which is a vertical pipe similar to the injection well but a bit wider.
