Model Answer
(c) I-2, II-3, III-1
Biological resource → Wildlife (2); Renewable resource → Solar Energy (3); Non-renewable resource → Coal (1).
Explanation
- Biological resources are obtained from living organisms (biotic), so Wildlife is correct.
- Renewable resources can be replenished naturally; Solar Energy is inexhaustible.
- Non-renewable resources (like Coal) take millions of years to form and cannot be quickly replenished.
- Option (c) is the only one that correctly pairs all three.
