Show answer and explanation

Answer: B. Exhaustible

Exhaustible resources (also known as non-renewable resources) are present in limited quantities in nature. Once they are used up, they cannot be replaced or renewed within a short period of time because they take millions of years to form. Examples include coal, petroleum, and natural gas.
