Hello, there!


The answer is A). Coal

Coal is a non-renewable resource because it cannot be replaced/replenished within a lifetime.

Wind, water power, and sunlight are all renewable resources as they can be replenished within a lifetime.


I hope I helped!

Let me know if you need anything else!

Hello There

Answer: Coal is not a renewable resource

Reasons: Wind, water power, and sunlight are all renewable resources, while coal is only a temporary one. Once it is used, it can't be recycled.

I hope this helps
