The options given in (a) and (b) are the same. Those sources of energy, which are being, produced continuously in nature and are inexhaustible are called renewable sources of energy. Those sources of energy, which have accumulated in nature over a very, very long time and cannot be quickly replaced when exhausted are called non-renewable sources of energy.
