5. Why is it important to use minerals wisely?
Answers
Answer:
It is very important we use renewable and non-renewable resources wisely. If a resource is used and thrown away, eventually the resource becomes scarce. When the supply dwindles, its price will increase. Products that are made from that resource would increase in price too.
The natural resources include air, water, land, minerals, forest, wildlife, climate, etc. * They are the gifts of nature. The terms 'nature' denotes the creation that is aggregate of land, air, water, light and sky.
All the matters that are not man-made are natural resources.
The earth consists of biotic and abiotic things.
Similarly, vegetation, human beings, animals and birds, other microorganisms are biotic (living) things.
Natural things consist of tiny particles to huge matters.
There are various cycles operating in nature.
Formation and destruction of natural elements continuously occur in a natural way.
