Explanation:

Geothermal energy is the heat energy derived from the Earth's core. It is a renewable energy source. The other options do not match the description of heat energy from the Earth's core. Liquefied natural gas is a fossil - fuel product. Surface mining and underground mining are related to extracting minerals. Secondary recovery is for oil and gas extraction. Resources is a general term. Photovoltaic cells convert sunlight to electricity. Overburden is related to mining. Renewable and non - renewable energy sources are general categories. Reserves are related to available resources. Black lung disease is a health problem related to coal mining. Active and passive solar systems are related to solar energy. Acid mine drainage is a mining - related environmental issue.

Answer:

O. geothermal energy
