Ecotourism

d. increases biodiversity by providing income to areas that might otherwise be destroyed

Explanation:

Ecotourism refers to visiting of  undisturbed natural areas.

Ecotourism  is different from other tourism on the fact that it does not involve visit to an area which is  maintained by humans.

Ecotourists spots are allowed to grow naturally so that they can drag people who really want to enjoy the nature.

Ecotourist spots are protected areas and taxes are levied on them.  

Ecotourist spots call for tourists and gives native people ,a way of earning.

This forces the people to maintain these spots and hence biodiversity is conserved.

lukranit [14]

Genetically modified organisms are those organisms in which certain gene is inserted to get the desired beneficial results.

Explanation:

A genetically modified organism is an organism or plant altered for beneficial traits which would not have been possible by the traditional mating process or recombination techniques.

Genetic engineering is the technique involved for the construction of gene of interest and inserting them in the host species for getting expressed.

Many fruitful results have come out like a tomato of long shelf life k/a flavr savr.

Apart from molecular techniques used for cloning, CRISPR is the recent innovation which had made it very simple.

The GMOs can solve the food problem of the world as Single-cell proteins and longer shelved life food.

Disease resistant plants can be formed for better yields.

Nutrition level of food can be increased.

Example of GMO are canola, corn, papaya, soy and many animals are also on the list.

How does the mutation that results in lactose tolerance affect people?
Stels [109]
People who are lactose intolerant are unable to digest lactose, the sugar commonly found in dairy, because their bodies don't make the enzyme lactase.

Lactase works by breaking down lactose into a simpler sugar that can be used by the body. Without it, lactose is not absorbed by the body & remains in the waste where gut bacteria metabolize it & cause the bloating, gas & other similar discomforts experienced by the lactose intolerant.

Hope that helps!

In truth, though, it is the non-lactose intolerant people that are the mutants. Not the other way around. Most wild animals don't consume milk after they have been weaned & it's just something humans developed to accommodate their diet.

Cancer is due to a mutation with in a gene that regulates cell growth. Some of these mutations are random, but some can be cause
Katarina [22]

Answer:

These changes can be caused by environmental factors such as ultraviolet radiation from the sun, or can occur if an error is made as DNA copies itself during cell division. Acquired mutations in somatic cells (cells other than sperm and egg cells) cannot be passed to the next generation.
