1) Electricity is made from using many different resources including both the non-renewable and renewable sources. a) True b) False 2) Non-renewable sources include: a) Renewable sources include uranium and fossil fuels, like coal and natural gas. b) Non-renewable sources include uranium and fossil fuels, like coal and natural gas. 3) If these sources are the only ones used to generate power, they will produce lots of waste and will eventually run out. a) False b) True 4) renewable sources can be used over and over again to produce energy without creating waste. a) True b) False 5) These resources are used to produce heat in order to convert water into steam. a) Renovable b) Non renovable 6) The steam turns an engine called a a) Turbine b) wind energy 7) As the turbine spins, electricity is generated. a) True b) False 8) Some power plants have machines called a) nuclear reactors b) Wind Power 9) Within these reactors are atoms of a radioactive metal called uranium. a) True b) False 10) Heat is created when these atoms are split apart. a) True b) False 11) This fossil fuel is burned in large boilers that are found in power plants. a) Coal b) Nuclear Power 12) The burning coal heats water in a boiler. And this produces steam, which spins a turbine engine. a) True b) False 13) There are generally two ways natural gas is used to create electricity. a) True b) False 14) First form of production produce natural gas a) One way involves burning it to heat water, which produces steam that turns a turbine. b) One way involves water it to heat water, which produces steam that turns a turbine. 15) Second form a) Natural gas may also be burned directly in a turbine as a way of creating gases that will spin turbine blades. b) wind may also be burned directly in a turbine as a way of creating gases that will spin turbine blades. 16) Examples Renewable sources a) Solar Power -  Eolic Energy - Wind Power b) Natural Gas - Coal 17) Is energy that is created directly from the light or heat of the sun. a) Solar power b) Eolic Energy - Wind Power c) Hydro electrical energy (Water Power ) d) Geothermal Power e) Biomass 18) Wind is used to spin turbines, modern windmills, which generate the power. a) Solar power b) Eolic Energy - Wind Power c) Hydro electrical energy (Water Power ) d) Geothermal Power e) Biomass 19) To generate electricity with this renewable source, water from a river or dam is sent through a turbine. a) Solar power b) Eolic Energy - Wind Power c) Hydro electrical energy (Water Power ) d) Geothermal Power e) Biomass 20) It sounds complicated, but geothermal power basically means using the heat from below the Earth’s surface. a) Solar power b) Eolic Energy - Wind Power c) Hydro electrical energy (Water Power ) d) Geothermal Power e) Biomass 21) is a renewable source of energy that uses organic materials to produce heat. a) Solar power b) Eolic Energy - Wind Power c) Hydro electrical energy (Water Power ) d) Geothermal Power e) Biomass 22) Wind Power: There's one drawback with using wind. Since it comes and goes, we can't always rely on it to constantly produce electricity when we want it. a) True b) False 23) Water Power: This moving water causes the turbine's blades to spin, which generates power. a) True b) False 24) Geothermal Power_: To use this renewable source, underground water is converted into steam that will spin turbines and generate power. a) True b) False 25) Biomass: To do this, wood by-products, plants, crops and animal waste are used instead of fossil fuels like coal and natural gas. a) True b) False 26) Biomass: Burning this organic waste creates the heat and steam that spins electricity-making turbines a) True b) False 27) For example, cow manure is a source of biomass energy because animal waste gives off methane gas. a) True b) False
