Option 2 : Nuclear energy

Nuclear energy is NOT an example of a bio-mass energy source.

  • Biomass is renewable organic material that comes from plants and animals.
  • Biomass contains stored chemical energy from the sun.
  • Biomass energy is formed through photosynthesis.
  • Biomass can be burned, however, it must be dried. This chemical process is called torrefaction.
  • Biomass is the only renewable energy source that can be converted into liquid biofuels such as ethanol and biodiesel.
  • Ethanol is made by fermenting biomass that is high in carbohydrates, such as sugar cane, wheat, or corn.
  • Biodiesel is made from combining ethanol with animal fat, recycled cooking fat, or vegetable oil.
  • Hence, it is clear that wood, gobar- gas, and coal are an example of biomass energy sources. 
  • On the other hand, nuclear energy is obtained from nuclear fusion and fission.

In the following question, the 1st and the last part of the sentence/passage are numbered 1 and 6. The rest of the sentence/ passage is split into four parts and named P, Q, R and S. These four parts are not given in their proper order. Read the sentence/ passage and find out which of the four combinations is correct. 1. Jupiter has 2.5 times more mass than all the other planets of the solar system combined and is 11 times as large as Earth in diameter. P. Jupiter is so large that scientists believe it almost became a star: as the gases and dust contracted to the form the planet, Q. But there was not enough mass available to create the temperature needed to start a fusion reaction such as that of the Sun. R. Thus, Jupiter has been cooling down ever since.  S. gravitational forces created tremendous pressure and the temperature inside the core—as high as tens of thousands of degrees. 6. Even so, Jupiter radiates about as much heat as it receives from the Sun.?
