Detailed Solution

Tidal energy does not fall under human-made resources. Tidal energy is a replenishable source of energy. Replenishable energy means energy that can form or recover again by putting effort into it. Tidal energy is the movement of oceanic tides harnessed to generate electricity. To produce electricity, humans build floodgate dams across inlets where water enters during high tide. The gates are closed once enough water flows in after the tide falls outside the floodgate. The water collected within the gate flows through a pipe that carries to the power generating turbine. So, if the floodgate dams or inlets wear out, they can be rebuilt by putting effort into them.
