Solution
The correct option is C Coal
There are nine major areas of energy resources. They fall into two categories: nonrenewable and renewable.
- Nonrenewable energy resources, like coal, nuclear, oil, and natural gas, are available in limited supplies. This is usually due to a long time it takes for them to be replenished.
- Renewable resources are replenished naturally and over relatively short periods of time. The five major renewable energy resources are solar, wind, water (hydro), biomass, and geothermal.
