Answer:

c. are renewable

Explanation:

There are many energy sources that the humans have learned to use and exploit. Some resources are non-renewable, while some a re renewable. The non-renewable tend to be cheaper for the time being, and they also tend to produce more energy, but the problem is that the reserves will eventually run out. On the other side, the renewable resources are constantly out there, and they can not be spent, which gives them the advantage on the long run.

The alternative energy sources have been more and more in the focus, especially when it comes to the more developed nations. The main reasons for this are that the fossil fuels will eventually run out, and that they are more environment friendly. This has led to development of technology that is able to harvest energy from the sun, water, and wind, all which are natural resources that are constantly present and can not be spent. Some nations have invested so much in these resources that they have gradually started to replace the fossil fuels, with the end goal being stopping the usage of the fossil fuels totally.

How are edge cities formed and how are they beneficial/detrimental?

sergey [27]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Edge cities are usually formed because land in the suburbs or on the outskirts of the city is cheaper (bid-rent curve), so they can make more a profit.

These businesses are normally connected the the CBD (central business district) so transportation to and from that area is still possible.

People that live in the suburbs or are visiting the main city have easy access to the edge city as you might not have to travel as far to these cities as the CBD (distance decay).

Edge cities can be a good thing because they allow for new businesses to thrive and they can increase economic activity and competition due to new construction, cheaper prices, new companies moving in, etc.

However, they can also be a detriment to the CBD because they might allow companies to relocate due to the cheaper land prices, they might take in the typical customers of the CBD companies, ultimately leading to the vacancy of the CBDs, which could be dangerous and create high-crime, unsanitary, or contaminated areas. It can also take attention away from significant or historical monuments and locations in the CBD.

Have a wonderful day and keep on learning! :D
