Should coal be considered a type of biomass?

No, coal is not considered a type of biomass. Biomass refers to organic materials like plants and animals that can be used as a renewable energy source. Coal, on the other hand, is a non-renewable fossil fuel that is formed from the remains of ancient plants and animals that have undergone chemical and physical changes over time.

Why do plants use its own prepared food?

hmm. If i understood you correct then plants use their own food because they cant photosynthesize at night. Alternatively, they respire just as animals (and humans) do, they take in oxygen and burn (small amounts) sugars they produce during sunlight, and release carbon dioxide and energy required to grow and reproduce.(note that plants dont produce food to use it during sunlight, because when they produce food they already produce ATP energy)

What era was the plants and animals that we burn today for coal and oil from?

The plants and animals that we burn today for coal and oil primarily originated during the Carboniferous period, which lasted from about 359 to 299 million years ago. This era was characterized by dense forests of giant ferns, horsetails, and clubmosses, as well as abundant marine life. The remains of these ancient organisms were buried and subjected to heat and pressure over millions of years, transforming them into fossil fuels like coal and oil.


Which do you think lived first -- plants or animals. why do you think so?

No "thinking" required here: plants preceded animals by eons. The reason is energy. Plants store it; animals burn it up. The processes are called synthesis (photosynthesis, if the energy is in the form of light) and respiration. Stored energy has to be built up before it can be used. Animals get that energy from plants by eating them.


Can you burn your dishes?

You can burn your dishes, but only if they are paper (or cardboard) dishes. Ceramic dishes do not burn. Plastic dishes do burn, but will produce a noxious smoke. And if you do want to burn your dishes, burn them only in a properly constructed fireplace or fire pit, so that the fire remains controlled, and does not spread. Fire can be amazingly dangerous.
