Nonrenewable we only use them and renewable we can use them over and over.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The renewable resources are those which can be re-utilized again after once used. The non- renewable resources are those resources which cannot be utilized after a single used. The renewable resources are abundantly available in nature and their supply is not going to end for example water, forests, sunlight and wind. The renewable resources are limited in availability and if they become scarce their concentration cannot be maintained. For example, fossil fuels and inorganic minerals.

Thus the use of non-renewable resources should be done in sustainable way so that they remain available for future.
