Answer:

the correct answer is B. Resources are used to produce things that satisfy​ people's wants.

Step-by-step explanation:

Wants are the ways we satisfy our basic needs such as food, water, shelterm clothing, etc.

Wants are unlimited. Also, they can be created by businesses as well. However, resources are limited. Most of the resources are given from the nature while some resources have been developed through the human intervention.

Resources are the basic input to produce the necessary things to satisfy the human wants. this conversion process of the resources is generally called the "production".
