Question

as the human population grows, what happens to our natural-resource requirements?
○ they increase.
○ they decrease.
○ they do not change.
○ they go in cycles.

Explanation:

As the human population grows, more people need resources like food, water, energy, and materials for shelter, so natural - resource requirements increase. The option "They decrease" is wrong because more people would need more resources. "They do not change" is incorrect as population growth creates more demand. "They go in cycles" is not relevant here as population growth leads to a steady or increasing demand, not cyclic changes.

Answer:

A. They increase.
