The correct answer is:

**D. a renewable resource can be replaced in the near future, and a non-renewable resource cannot be replaced for many lifetimes.**

Renewable resources, such as solar, wind, and biomass, can regenerate over short periods of time and can be used sustainably. Non-renewable resources, like fossil fuels and minerals, are finite and cannot be replenished on a human timescale once depleted.
