The document defines and classifies natural resources. Natural resources come directly from nature and are used with little modification. Resources are classified based on their development level, origin, quantity, and distribution. Actual resources are those whose quantity is known and are currently being used, while potential resources' full quantity may be unknown and are not currently being used but could be in the future. Resources are also classified as biotic, consisting of non-living things like rocks, or abiotic, consisting of living things like plants and animals.

? Definition: Resources that are drawn from Nature and used without much modification are called natural resources. ? Natural resources are classified into different groups depending upon their level of development and use; origin; stock and distribution. ?
? . These are again divided into 2:- ? 1.Actual Resources ? 2.Potential resources
? Definition: Actual resources are those resources whose quantity is known. These resources are being used in the present. ? EX: The rich deposits of coal in Ruhr region of Germany and petroleum in the West Asia, the dark soils of the Deccan plateau in Maharashtra are all actual resources.
? Definition: Potential resources are those whose entire quantity may not be known and these are not being used at present. These resources could be used in the future. The level of technology we have at present may not be advanced enough to easily utilize these resources. ? Ex: . The uranium found in Ladakh is an example of potential resource that could be used in the future.
? Here they are classified into 2 : ? 1. Abiotic Resources ? 2.Boitic Resources
? BIOTIC RESOURCES : They are the non living things on the basis of origin. EX: Rocks, Stones, Mud etc.. ? ABIOTIC RESOURCES : They are the living things on the basis of origin. EX : Human Beings, Plants, Animals.
