Question 3 • {HS} Earth and Space Science Sem. 1

Which describes an attribute of nonrenewable resources?

Answer
A
exist in fixed amounts
B
are unlimited
C
can often be replaced in a short time
D
are replaced faster than they are used

Explanation

Nonrenewable resources are available in limited supplies and take a very long time to form, so they exist in fixed amounts. They are not unlimited and generally cannot be replaced quickly enough to keep up with their use. Therefore, the correct choice is “exist in fixed amounts.”
