What source of energy is used as a last resort?

Nuclear power is sometimes considered a last resort energy source due to its high capital costs, complex infrastructure requirements, and safety concerns. It is generally used when other sources of energy are inadequate or unable to meet the demand.


How is wood made into an energy source?

Wood is made into an energy source through a process called combustion, where it is burned to release heat energy. The heat can then be used to generate electricity or heat buildings. Wood can also be converted into biofuels such as wood pellets or wood chips to be used as a renewable energy source.


Can helium be used as a type of energy source?

Helium itself is not a practical energy source as it is an inert gas and does not readily undergo chemical reactions to release energy. However, helium can be used in certain types of nuclear fusion reactions as a fuel source. Currently, research is being done to harness the energy potential of helium in fusion reactors as a clean and efficient energy source for the future.


Why is protein referred to as a secondary source of energy?

Proteins are basically long strings of amino acids. Digestion by enzymes yields the individual amino acid units, which can then enter the TCA cycle, producing ATP in the process.

Which renewable energy source was first used by humans?

The first renewable energy source used by humans was likely wood, as it was used for heating and cooking thousands of years ago.
