Natural resources are generally divided into two other groups: exhaustible and inexhaustible.Inexhaustible resource whose future availability is independent of past consumption. Of these, the energy we receive from the sun is the most important. Non-renewable and exhaustible natural resources are all that we find in the ground: coal, petroleum, natural gas, uranium, iron ore, copper, nickel. All resources are consumable, except for solar, wind, tidal and wave power, and thermal power.The natural environment, including soil, water, forests, flora and fauna, is a renewable and exhaustible resource as long as it is properly monitored, protected and preserved. Hence, option 1 is correct.
