Question

Which of the following is a resource that does not grow and come back, or a resource that would take a very long time to come back?

• A. Renewable
• B. Non-renewable
• C. Both a and b
• D. None of above

Answer 1

The correct option is B Non-renewable

A natural resource is anything that people can use which comes from nature. People do not make natural resources, but gather them from the earth. A non-renewable resource is a resource that does not grow and come back or a resource that would take a very long time to come back. For example, coal, petroleum, etc. are non-renewable resources.

Option $B$ is correct.
