Overview: choose two categories of natural resources (i. e., plants, animals, soil, minerals, air, water, or energy sources). then conduct your own research of primary literature (peer-reviewed work from reputable sources, especially discipline-specific journals) and, in a short overview presentation: define the two categories of natural resources compare and contrast their use (historical, present, and future potential) discuss how the two categories are interrelated list your resources, with a minimum of two sources within your work, using apa in-text format as well an apa-formatted reference slide at the end of the 1. 2. 3. 4. presentation

Answer and Explanation:

1. Natural resources are those things which are found on the Earth without human exertion and they are of two kinds which are as per the following:

Renewable natural resources  :

It is a sort of natural resource which can be utilized over and over and they are not going to end sometime in the not so distant future, for instance, wind, sunlight based vitality, water, plants, etc.

Non-renewable natural resource  :

It is a sort of natural resources which are present in very limited quantity and it will end on someday, for example, Coal, petroleum, minerals, etc.

2. Human beings are mostly depended on natural resources and it makes their life easy and comfortable. Let's see its usages one by one.

Historical: Historically, we depended on the renewable natural resources, for example, plants, animals, water and our life started and ended with this form of natural resources when we were not technically advanced.

Present: Presently, we are more technologically advanced and using various technologies to lead our life and we are using fossil fuels at a greater extent and within 30 to 50 years this non-renewable source is going to end and we need to choose our alternative ways also.

Future potential: The way non-renewable natural resources are declining by our present use, we need to switch to renewable sources which are long lasting as well as eco-friendly and that's why the renewable natural sources would be in more demand in near future.

3. These two categories are inter-related because they both provide the energy requirements of the present time, as well as non-renewable natural resources,  are formed by the help of renewable sources since the long geological process.

4. we are vastly using now-renewable sources like petroleum, coal and renewable natural sources like solar energy, wind for our need for energy requirements

since there isn't any suggested answers i will give you the reason and hopefully you can figure it

south africa, or rather all of africa, has not been in the location in which it is nowadays throughout the geological past. after the super-continent pangaea started to break apart, gondwanaland, in which was africa, moved further south, and parts of it came to be very close to the south pole. because the climate in this part of the world is very cold due to the very dispersed sun rays in there, what is now south africa, started to freeze, and the conditions were right for the formation of glaciers. the glaciers existed up until the period when gondwanaland started to break apart and what is now africa started to move towards north, sp it warmed up and the glaciers melted.
