What does it mean to be depleted?

  1. To refill a supply or resources

  2. To use up the supply or resources

  3. To gather new resources

  4. To safeguard supplies from depletion

The correct answer is: To use up the supply or resources

Being depleted means to have used up a supply or resources, resulting in a diminished quantity or quality. When something is described as depleted, it indicates that it has been significantly reduced, often to the point where it may be considered scarce or insufficient for ongoing needs. In the context of resources, such as energy, materials, or finances, depletion suggests that these resources have been consumed or exhausted, implying that they need to be replenished or replaced. Understanding this term is important for discussions around resource management, environmental conservation, and strategic planning, as depletion can affect future availability and sustainability.
