Question

Bioprospecting demonstrates the economic importance of conserving species at what point in time?

विकल्प

• After their habitats have been completely converted for agriculture

• Before they disappear

Answer 1

Bioprospecting shows the economic importance of conserving species before they disappear, since undiscovered medicines, valuable genes, and commercially important products may be lost forever once a species becomes extinct.
