In hydraulic systems, pressurized liquids and gases are typically conveyed through which component category?

In hydraulic systems, the pressurized fluid is moved through a network of pipes, tubes, hoses, and other conduits. These conduits carry the liquid or gas from the pump or reservoir to actuators, valves, and back, while maintaining the required pressure and flow. The other options don’t fit because electrical cables carry electricity, turbines are energy-converting devices rather than fluid carriers, and pumps generate and sustain pressure but the actual conveyance path is provided by the piping and lines.
