Answers
Answer:
1) Natural resources are resources that exist without any actions of humankind. This includes all valued characteristics such as commercial and industrial use, aesthetic value, scientific interest and cultural value. On Earth, it includes sunlight, atmosphere, water, land along with all vegetation, and animal life.
2) Natural resources are also classified based on their renewability: Renewable natural resources: these are resources that can be replenished. Examples of renewable resources include sunlight, air, and wind. Non-renewable natural resources: these resources form extremely slow and do not naturally form in the environment.
4) (a)Economic Value: Some resources can be bought or sold, or can be used to make things that can be bought or sold. For e.g. Minerals. (b) Aesthetic Value: We enjoy the beauty of mountains, waterfalls, sea, landscapes. Thus, they are resources which have "Aesthetic Value".
7) Use less water and Recycle
5) Ubiquitous resources are found everywhere (for example air, light, and water). Localized resources are found only in certain parts of the world (for example metal ores and geothermal power).
