Because carbohydrates can be converted into energy but can not store energy.
Answer AND Explanation:
<u>FACTORS THAT CAUSE GENETIC VARIATIONS</u>
- Crossing over. At the chiasmata during prophase I of meiosis, breakage may occur and exchange of genetic information may take place. New gene combinations which result in variations.
- Independent assortment. The arrangement of homologous chromosomes at the equator of the spindle during metaphase of the first meiotic division is random. These homologous chromosomes segregate into different daughter cells which contain different genetic combinations which brings about variation
- Fertilisation permits parental genes to be brought together in different combinations. This is the cause of variations in members of the same family.
- Mutation is the spontaneous change in the genetic makeup of an organism. These changes may be inherited by the offspring therefore beginning variation.

Answer:
Practice that provides the best means of protecting biodiversity in the wild for future generations is - <u>expanding breeding programs for endangered species .</u>
Explanation: The best way of preserving biodiversity for future generations in the wild -
- <u>Expanding breeding programs for endangered species . -:</u> Breeding programmes, such as the panda, help conserve endangered species. Replanting hedgerows because there is greater biodiversity in them than the fields they surround, minimizing deforestation and the release of greenhouse gases, protecting and creating new endangered ecosystems, often by making National Parks.
The other statements are not so suitable means of protecting biodiversity in the wild for future generation as the first statement indicates about the initiation of recycling programmes in neighborhood , which has no role in preservation of biodiversity or wildlife because the statement is about keeping the environment clean and healthy .
The other statement is about reduction of air pollution as buying vehicles with reduced carbon emissions improves the quality of air.
And the other statement of Protecting wildlife areas such as national parks comes under the other statement which states "expanding breeding programs for endangered species".
Hence , the correct option is D.
