The correct choice is: whether or not the resource can be replaced.
Explanation: Renewable resources can be naturally replenished on a human timescale (e.g., sunlight, wind, forests if managed), while nonrenewable resources cannot be replaced (or form far too slowly) for practical human use (e.g., oil, coal, minerals).
