At present almost all the metals and industrial minerals utilized to manufacture consumer goods and machinery are extracted from onshore resources. In an effort to become independent of imports and safeguard themselves from future supply shortages, some countries are contemplating mining such resources from the ocean. But underwater mining is still too expensive and there is uncertainty about its environmental impact.




Manganese nodule treasures

> Many thousands of square kilometres of the deep-sea floor are covered by metal-bearing nodules. They contain primarily manganese, but also nickel, cobalt and copper, which makes them economically promising. Although many countries and companies are already intensively investigating their distribution, it is not certain whether the manganese nodules will ever be mined. After all, at least for the intermediate future, there are enough metals available on land.





Metal-rich crusts

> Cobalt crusts are a promising resource on the sea floor because they contain large amounts of cobalt, nickel, manganese and other metals that could exceed the content in land deposits. They form on the rocky surfaces of undersea rises. For their extraction, machines are required that can separate the material from the substrate. To date, however, only conceptual studies exis

butalik [34]

Answer:

The correct option is D)  They can insert the gene for the protein from plant species Bigous moldkillae into a chromosome in Yummious letus.

Explanation:

Biotechnology can be described as the technology in which the genome of organisms are altered so that organisms with better qualities can be produced. In the scenario discussed in the question, techniques of biotechnology can be used to insert the fungus-killing gene of Bigous moldkillae into the genome of the Yunnious letus. In this way, the Yunnious letus species will become resistant to the fungal infections.
