this is because water is not produced by the plant/animal so it is not included in the biomass measurement :)

Why is biomass considered a renewablde resource?

plants regrow using sunlight and water


What does biomass measure?

the amount of matter in a body is found by drying it to remove all the water then weighing it. This amount of matter is called the biomass. Ecologists find measuring biomass useful as it tells them how much matter is locked up in each species of a food chain.


The amount and direction of movement of water in plants can always be predicted by measuring WHAT?

water potential


Why is biomass considered a renewable resource?

Biomass is considered a renewable resource because the energy source will come from organic matter such as garbage or crop waste.


How is biomass generated?

Biomass is generated by plant life. Plants take carbon dioxide out of the air and combine this with water using the energy they captured from sunlight to make sugars.


Which substance do plants use to produce biomass?

Biomass is the total dry mass of an organism. In other words it is the name given to the material that makes up a living organism, excluding water. Therefore it is the compounds such as proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins etc. Plants produce biomass when they grow. To produce biomass plants need carbon dioxide and water (which they use to make glucose in photosynthesis) but they also need some nitrogen to make proteins, and some phosphorous so they can make DNA. They get these in mineral salt compounds called nitrates and phosphates from the soil. Confusingly biomass is also a term used for biological material that can be processed to make biofuel.


Where do all the different substances in plants biomass come from?

Though there are exceptions, the majority of plants take up water and nutrients through their roots which are anchored in the soil..


Does biomass energy come from plants?

Biomass Energy is energy derived from biomass fuels. Biomass fuels are organic fuels mainly of plant origin, the biomass being formed in living plants by the process of photosynthesis and stored in complex polymers like lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose. All these three are the constituents of biomass fuels (wood, agric. wastes, etc). This stored energy is released during combustion or burning, the latter being a reverse of photosynthesis during which biomass say wood burns in oxygen producing heat energy, carbon dioxide and water.
