Answer: Option C.It is never replenished.

Step-by-step explanation:

A non-renweable resource is a resource which is associated with some economic value and is beneficial to use but has a disadvantage that it cannot be renewed by natural processes or it is used faster than it can be renewed.

An example of a non-renewable resource is the fossil fuels which take millions of years to form and thus, cannot be renewed at the rate which matches human consumption.
