Answer:

C.

Explanation:

"The Man Who Coined 'Genocide' Spent His Life Trying To Stop It" is an article that talks about the life of Raphael Lemkin. Raphael Lemkin was the one who coined the term 'genocide' in 1943. The term genocide is a combination of a Greek and a Latin word. 'Genos' in Greek means 'race or family' and 'cidere' in Latin means killing. Lemkin had extensive knowledge of seven languages so he had to come up with a word that would perfectly justify the crime of mass killing of a race. Lemkin coined the term and fought till his last breath to give 'genocide' a recognition of crime and a punishable offense. <u>Though the word 'genocide' is widely accepted today as a crime much effort has been put behind to make this word be recognized as a crime by Lemkin. While he was struggling to make this word a crime 49 members of his own family became the victim of it in the Holocaust, which made his determination even stronger</u>.

So, the correct answer is option C.

stiv31 [10]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Unfortunately, there is no question here. Just a series of sentences.

What is your question? What do you want to know?

However, trying to help you we can comment on the following.

The tropical rainforest indeed is one of the oldest ecosystems. It is one of the most diverse ecosystems. Half the plant and animal species on Earth live there. This includes many that haven't been discovered yet.

If there is one place on planet Earth with such richness in diversity, is precisely in the tropical rainforest. Scientists believe that in the rainforest live 55% of animals, plants, trees, and vegetation that exist on our planet.

These scientists and researchers affirm that of the 250,000 species of plants that have been discovered on Earth, approximately 170,000 can be found in the rainforest.

So people should ask their governments to take extra care to protect the environment, especially the tropical rainforests that are avital part of the sentient beings that live on planet Earth.
