Answer 1
Answer: The answer is the Portuguese. The Portuguese established many colonies along the coast of Africa as they were one of the first discovers of these lands.

Their actions led to the greatest number of forced migrations of people from Africa.

Inexhaustible and renewable resources are used less than ______ resources.

Answers

The correct answer is - nonrenewable.

Even though lots of countries are making big efforts in reducing the usage of nonrenewable resources, mainly because of the harm they cause to our health and they damage the environment, still it is always the economic factor that doesn't allow that they are totally kicked out of usage. These resources are still cheaper than the renewable and inexhaustible resources, and a lot of investments and technological advance is needed so that these resources are able to outcompete the nonrenewable ones.

Answer:

Exhaustible and non renewable resources.

Explanation:

  • As the earth which was once full of resources is now falling behind in terms of resources as the carrying capacity of the planet is decreasing and the resources that once use to meet the needs of the population are now in-adequate to meet even the daily requirements of man and all this is due to his overexploitation of resource base of the earth and unlimited and untamed destruction of the planet
  • Thus after the turn of the 20th-century people started releasing the need to protect and conserve the planet from the global threat of warming
