Answer 1

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.
