Answer 2

People in both the North and the South increased their use of both renewable and non-renewable natural resources during the late 1800s. Option A is correct.

From the late 1800's until today, fossil fuels, coal, petroleum, and natural natural gas have been the major sources of energy.

Renewable energy refers to the energy from sources that are naturally replenishing but flow-limited. They are virtually inexhaustible in duration but limited in the amount of energy that is available per unit of time.
