David Burrows · Accepted Answer

Final Answer : D, Explanation :  During the lock-up phase of a torque converter, the turbine is locked to the front cover, effectively creating a direct mechanical connection between the engine and the transmission. This improves fuel efficiency by eliminating the slippage that normally occurs in the torque converter.
