What is biomass?

The word “biomass” has two meanings. In basic biological terms, biomass is simply defined as all the living matter present on earth. The earth is constantly replenishing its biomass in the form of new plant growth and procreation among animals. Biomass also refers to the plant and animal matter used for fuel generation. Biomass is considered as a renewable energy source.
