Answer 2

Yes, geothermal power can be classified as a renewable resource

Step-by-step explanation:

it is replenished by the Earth's natural heat production and can be used without depleting the resource. While the rate of replenishment can vary depending on the location and usage, it is generally considered to be a sustainable source of energy. As long as the heat is not extracted faster than it is naturally replenished, geothermal energy can be harnessed as a renewable resource for power generation.
