Will give a brainlest why are scientists concerned that currently unknown medicinal plants may never be discovered? current technology is unable to detect their medicinal benefits. habitats are being destroyed faster than the plants can be discovered. domestic versions of the same plants will outcompete them. the plants’ habitats are so remote that they cannot be reached.

I believe that the answer would have something to do with either, Habitats are being destroyed faster than the plants can be discovered or The plants’ habitats are so remote that they cannot be reached.

The current rate of deforestation means that biodiversity is being lost from the planet. Despite extensive studies, there are still many different species of plants and animals that are yet to be discovered, and their discovery becomes less likely due to the destruction of habitats by activities such as deforestation. This causes concern in the scientific community over the loss of potentially life-saving plants.
