Detailed Solution

Biomass is a renewable source of energy.
Renewable energy is energy generated from natural resources that can be replenished quickly. For example, biomass is a source of energy that can be consumed directly as fuel or for eating or can be changed into other forms and can be changed into compost. Since biomass can grow quickly compared to others and comes from living organisms like plants and animals, it is considered a renewable energy source.
On the other hand, coal, nuclear energy and petroleum take years to replenish; hence, they are unreliable source of energy. Therefore, it is considered a non-renewable source of energy.
