Brainliesttt compare the costs and benefits of biomass energy with coal, another carbon-based resource. both biomass and coal energies are expensive, but they do not release greenhouse gases. both biomass and coal energies are renewable, and they protect habitats. both biomass and coal energies are inexpensive, but they release greenhouse gases. both biomass and coal energies are nonrenewable, and they do not protect habitats.

ANSWER:

C. Both biomass and coal energies are inexpensive, but they release greenhouse gases.

We can achieve this answer through the process of elimination. First of all, we can establish that both biomass and coal are non-renewable and inexpensive. So the answer can't be Option A or Option B.

As well as this, the question is stating to compare both the costs and benefits of the two energy resources, meaning that the answer must have both a benefit ( positive ) and cost ( negative ) in it. As Option D only outlines the costs ( negatives ) of the two resources, it can't be the answer.

Therefore, Option C must be the correct answer.
