Assessment: WAEC SSCE - Biology - 2017 (Objective) Subject: Biology

Question 1 Report

Which of the following resources cannot be renewed?

Answer Details
Petroleum is a resource that cannot be renewed. Petroleum, also known as crude oil, is a fossil fuel that was formed millions of years ago from the remains of plants and animals. It is a non-renewable resource because it takes millions of years to form and cannot be replenished at the same rate it is being used. Once all the petroleum reserves have been extracted, there will be no more left. This is in contrast to renewable resources such as air, food crops, and soil, which can be replenished naturally over time.
