Is it possible to complete the inventory of the biological wealth of India?

Options

  1. AYes
  2. BNo
  3. CPartially
  4. DCan't say

Correct answer

B. No

Step-by-step solution

Explanation : Would we ever be able to complete the inventory of the biological wealth of our country? Consider the immense trained manpower (taxonomists) and the time required to complete the job. The situation appears more hopeless when we realise that a large fraction of these species faces the threat of becoming extinct even before we discover them. Nature’s biological library is burning even before we catalogued the titles of all the books stocked there.
