D. Flour

Answer 1

Answer:

A. Labour

D. Flour

Explanation:

A resource is something that supplies or adds value to a process.  To this small business, resources will be all the things it uses to bake and deliver customers' cakes.

Labour and flour and useful in the baking of cakes. Without these two resources, the business will halt.  Resources are, therefore, the inputs that make production possible.
