Resources (Assignment - 1)

1. Biotic resources come from living things, potential resources are those whose quantities are known, and renewable resources like solar and wind energy can be replenished. 2. Natural resources are resources drawn from nature with little modification, like water, soil, and forests. Actual resources refer to resources present in a particular location, such as black soil found in certain areas. 3. Non-renewable resources like coal are examples of resources that cannot be replenished and must be used carefully through conservation to balance resource use with sustainable development for future generations.
