Answer to Question 1

As more of the world continues to grow and develop, the supply of nonrenewable fuels
such as petroleum will not be able to keep up with the demand; therefore, a renewable
source of energy such as biofuels is needed. In the United States, dependence on other
countries for fossil fuel supply and a growing public concern about nonrenewable
energy sources and harmful greenhouse gases have pushed the need to find alternative
fuels forward. Biofuel is a great alternative fuel source because it can be produced in our
own country and it is renewable and cleanburning.



Answer to Question 2

Renewable resources can be replaced like crops or trees, but nonrenewable energy
sources, such as coal and petroleum, are gone once they have been used up

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
