Hint:Here humans are not considered as a resource as an individual but the question is dealing with the activity of human or man power or it can also be called as human energy which can be both mental and physical in order to adapt to the environment by various means.

Complete answer:
Renewable sources of energy is considered to be that type of energy which is produced by natural resources which will replenish in order to replace the used part of the same kind of energy by itself that is naturally or by involvement of mankind. Examples for renewable resources include air, water, food which can replenish itself naturally ever after its consumption, air and water replenish itself naturally by several cycles whereas food which is consumed by humans are replenished by means of agriculture.

A non renewable resource is just opposite of renewable resources where this type of type of resource which produce energy can delete art certain time of usage this cannot replenish either naturally or by simple involvement of humans for example coal, petroleum, natural gas and other petroleum products which are mainly produced by fossils, in order for its replenishing, lot of time consumption is seen. Humans are not an exhaustible source of energy.

Hence the correct answer is option ‘A’.

Note: Exhaustible resources is the other name of non renewable sources of energy, whereas inexhaustible resources of energy is the other name of renewable source of energy.
