Which of the following is not an example of a bio-mass energy source?
$(a)$ wood
$(b)$ gobar-gas
$(c)$ nuclear energy
$(d)$ coal
Correct Answer is : $(c)$ nuclear energy
Explanation:
Biomass$\rightarrow$
Biomass is the organic matter like dead parts of plants and trees and the waste material of animals which are used as a fuel to produce energy.
Examples of biomass energy:
Wood, agricultural wastes, cow dung, and biogas are some examples of biomass energy.
Nuclear energy$\rightarrow$
Nuclear energy $(Atomic\ energy)$ is also known as nuclear energy refers to the energy released through fission and fusion of the nucleus of an atom to generate heat and electricity.
Examples of Nuclear energy-
Solar energy produced due to nuclear fusion and electricity generated by an atomic reactor are examples of nuclear energy.
Therefore, nuclear energy is not an example of a bio-mass energy source as it is derived from atomic fusion or atomic fission.
Therefore, option [$(c)$ nuclear energy ] is correct.
