Theobroma cacao (cacao) is the tree that produces seeds that are turned into chocolate. These trees provide many poor people in the tropics with some cash income. However, these farmers face many obstacles to production of their crop, including temperature and rainfall changes caused by atmospheric CO2 increases, and many diseases and pests. Analysis of the cacao genome showed that there is some (but not a lot) of genetic variation in the 10 major varieties. Which of the following strategies would be most useful in the long term in reducing pressures faced by cacao farmers? Select one:
A. Fertilize the trees in closely spaced areas and add fungicides and pesticides to eliminate pests.
B. Plant more trees in the temperate zone.
C. Plant trees farther apart so that disease transmission rates from one tree to the next will be lower.
D. Crossbreed cacao strains that produce high-quality cacao beans and ones resistant to a disease. Clear my choice

Answer:

B. Plant more trees in the temperate zone.

Explanation:

The presence of abundant cabondioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere is as result of a decrease in plants populations.

plants makes use of CO2 in photosynthesis a process in which green plants manufacture their food Abundance of trees helps to clear the environment from excess CO2 through their utilization leading to a fresh and enabling environment.

Hence their is need to plant more trees in temperate and avoid deforestation of trees to enable plant make of CO2 and reduced the adverse effect of its excess in the environment.
