Final answer:

A 'renewable' resource is one that is replenished at a rate that keeps up with (or exceeds) consumption. For example, sunlight and wind are renewable resources because they are constantly available and will not be used up. Hence the correct answer is option A

Step-by-step explanation:

A 'renewable' resource is one that is replenished at a rate that keeps up with (or exceeds) consumption.

For example, sunlight and wind are renewable resources because they are constantly available and will not be used up. Similarly, the rising and falling of ocean tides is also a renewable resource because it occurs naturally and is not depleted by human use.

Hence the correct answer is option A
