Respuesta :
"Biodiversity is fundamental to human welfare and economic development and plays a critical role in meeting human needs by maintaining the ecological processes upon which our survival depends" is True.
Answer: Option A
Explanation:
"Biodiversity" is the life on Earth's range and difference among them. It is the measure of variation typically in a genetic, species, and ecosystem level.
The economical development promoted by biodiversity is understood from following ways:
- Deforestation may result into soil erosion and desertification, which decline the ability of a nation or region to grow crops and in turn may lead to resource and economic dependency on other countries.
- Biodiversity-rich areas provide a pleasant, enticing climate and are able to promote tourism.
- Ecological phenomenon such as primary production affects the limit, distribution, and system's biodiversity. The down fall of primary production leads to the flow of energy to higher tropic levels which may impair the feasibility of food-dependent animal populations.
