Solution

The correct option is B renewable resource
All the things we need to survive such as food, water, air and shelter come from natural resources. Some of these resources can be replaced after they are used and are called renewable resources. Other resources such as fossil fuels cannot be replaced at all. Once they are used up, they are gone forever. This is because it takes a long time for their formation while their consumption occurs very quickly. These are called non-renewable resources.
