Many drugs are still derived from bioactive compounds in plants, like penicillin, aspirin, and digoxin. Loss of biodiversity destroys living organisms that could be sources for life-saving drugs.
لا تزال العديد من الأدوية مشتقة من مركبات نشطة بيولوجيًا من النباتات، مثل البنسلين والأسبرين والديجوكسين. فقدان التنوع البيولوجي يدمر الكائنات الحية التي قد تكون مصدرًا لأدوية منقذة للحياة.
