Question

which of the following could become non - renewable if consumed faster than it is replenished? solar power hydroelectric biomass

Explanation:

• Solar power: The sun's energy is essentially inexhaustible on human timescales, so it won't become non - renewable due to consumption rate.
• Hydroelectric: Depends on water cycles, and water is naturally replenished (unless in extreme cases of large - scale disruption, but generally, it's not likely to become non - renewable due to consumption rate).
• Biomass: Biomass comes from organic matter like plants. If we harvest plants (for biomass) faster than they can grow (replenish), the source of biomass will be depleted, and it can become non - renewable.

Answer:

biomass
