Discussion
From a human usage perspective, and as long as the rate of replenishment or recovery exceeds the rate of consumption such resource is termed as :
Answer: C
Such a resource is a renewable resource.
A renewable resource is replaced by natural processes, such as forests, fish stocks, groundwater and soil, and remains available as long as it is used no faster than it is replenished. Overuse beyond that rate can still exhaust it.
A non-renewable resource, such as coal or petroleum, forms over geological time and is effectively not replenished at all. 'Limited' and 'short-term' resources are not the standard terms for a resource defined by replenishment exceeding consumption.
