Question

Choose the source of energy different from others

• A. Natural gas
• B. Hydropower
• C. Geothermal power
• D. Ocean waves

Answer 1

The correct option is A

Natural gas

Explanation for correct option:

1. There are basically two sources of energy- renewable and non-renewable sources of energy.
2. Renewable sources are those which can be produced again and again over a period of time.
3. Whereas non-renewable sources are the ones that cannot be produced again and again after a period of time.
4. Natural gas is a non-renewable source of energy because it has a limited supply and cannot be replaced.

Explanation for incorrect options:

1. Option (B) Hydropower: It is a renewable source of energy. It can be re-produced over a period of time.
2. Option (C) Geothermal power: It is also a renewable source of energy and can be reproduced over a period of time.
3. Option (D) Ocean waves: It has an unlimited supply and can be reproduced over a period of time. It is also a renewable source of energy. So all options are the same and only option (A) is different.

Hence, option A is the correct answer.
