Question

The picture below shows an amur leopard, a critically endangered species.

How can biotechnology positively affect the amur leopard population?

A. by providing a way to produce more amur leopards through spontaneous generation

B. by providing a way to clone and reproduce amur leopards to prevent their extinction

OC. by artificially selecting other cat species to breed with the amur leopard population to introduce beneficial traits

OD. by artificially selecting other cat species to breed with the amur leopard population to keep the population pure

Answer 1

B. by providing a way to clone and reproduce amur leopards to prevent their extinction

Biotechnology can be used to assist in the cloning and reproduction of endangered species like the amur leopard, helping to increase their population numbers and prevent their extinction. This can be done through techniques such as in vitro fertilization, cloning, and genetic engineering to increase genetic diversity and overall health of the population.
