Interpretation: It should be identified for the second largest energy source of United States of America.
Concept Introduction:
Fossil fuels:
Fossil fuels originate from organic matter that was trapped under the Earth surface for many millennia.
Due to the particular combination of temperature, pressure, and available oxygen, the decomposition of organic matter resulted in the hydrocarbons.
The extracted item ; Coal, crude oil, and natural gas- the solid, liquid and gaseous forms of fossil fuels, respectively.
Nonrenewable sources are those for which the energy source is used and not concurrently replenished.
Renewable energy sources:
The sun energy is an example of renewable resources.
These include solar energy and energy derived from wind, biomass, and moving water likewise geothermal energy is a renewable resources.
