A nonrenewable resource is a resource that can't be replenished quickly or effectively.
Water is a renewable resource because there is a lot of it, and it is always being replenished through the water cycle.
Sunlight is a inexorable resource, which is just a fancy way of saying it will never run out.
Trees can be planted, but they take a while to grow, but can, technically, be counted as a renewable resource.
Therefore, the only answer that doesn't grow back after you take it is metals.
Your answer is C. Metals.

Why does sedimentation continue to fill the basins, albeit typically rather slowly, during the post-rift phase?
Bond [772]

Answer:

Subsidence is so slow that there seems to have been no depression of the upper surface of the lithosphere, so depositional environments are mostly the

same as those in surrounding areas; the succession is just thicker. These

successions are also more complete, however—there are fewer and smaller

diastems—so at times the basin must have remained under water while surrounding areas were emergent. (A diastem is a brief interruption in

sedimentation, with little or no erosion before sedimentation resumes.)

Size, shape: rounded, equidimensional, hundreds of kilometers across

Sediment fill: shallow-water cratonal sediments (carbonates, shales, sandstones),

thicker and more complete than in adjacent areas of the craton but still

relatively thin, hundreds of meters.

Hopefully that helps!
