The correct response is:
**It takes so long to form.**
Soil is considered a nonrenewable natural resource because the process of soil formation is extremely slow, often taking thousands of years to develop a few centimeters of topsoil, making it difficult for soil to be replenished at the same rate it is being eroded or degraded.
