Nonrenewable resources (except nuclear) are formed from: (Look in your journal) coal, and oil from under ground decaying biomass burning plants and animal waste the remains of dead plants and animals 4. Many renewable resources function by: (Look in your journal) burning up all the fossil fuels solar energy operating generators boiling water to create steam which turns a turbine connected to a generator which produces electricity. they all require power plants 5. In addition to creating electricity, oil (petroleum) is also used to: (Look at oil info page with QR code) power trains create household chemicals produce helium for balloons power solar panels 6. Biomass as a renewable resource has an advantage in that it is available almost everywhere. (look in your journal at biomass info page) True False 7.
