Question 1: Based on the data, which of these would be considered a renewable resource?

Response: B - Timber

Question 2: Which of these energy resources is likely to be depleted if these trends continue?

Response: C - Petroleum

Explanation:

  • Timber is considered a renewable resource because it can be replanted and regrown over time.
  • Coal, petroleum, and natural gas are fossil fuels that take millions of years to form, making them non-renewable resources that can be depleted with continued extraction and consumption.
