(b) nonrenewable conventional energy source

(c) renewable nonconventional energy source

(d) renewable conventional energy source.

Answer 1

Correct answer:- (b) non-renewable conventional energy source

Explanation:-

Conventional energy resources are those energy resources which are in common use, e.g. animal power, fuel wood, fossil fuel and hydroelectric energy. These conventional energy resources are non-renewable resources.

A non-renewable resource is a natural resource that cannot be re-made, re-grown or regenerated on a sea!: comparative to its consumption. It exists in a fixed amount that is being renewed or is used up faster than it can be made by nature. Often fossil fuels, such as coal, petroleum, and natural gas are considered non-renewable resources, as they do not naturally re-form at a rate that makes the way we use them sustainable.
