Read the following passage and choose the best answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 40.

1. The decline in pollinator populations is creating significant challenges for both the economy and human health. According to 2020 data, global production of fruits, vegetables, and nuts is 3 to 5 percent lower than it could be if wild pollinators were healthy. [I] Limited access to nutritious food is estimated to cause approximately 427,000 deaths each year. These deaths are linked to conditions such as heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and certain types of cancer. [II] These findings are based on research conducted by the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health.

2. The study, published in Environmental Health Perspectives, is the first to measure the human health effects of losing wild pollinators. [III] Samuel Myers, the principal researcher, highlighted that there has been little focus on linking biodiversity loss to human health. He emphasized that this research demonstrates how the loss of pollinators is already affecting human health on a scale comparable to other global health risks, such as prostate cancer or substance use disorders.

3. This issue is also being discussed at the COP15: UN Biodiversity Conference in Montreal, where experts are raising concerns about a potential "insect apocalypse." [IV] Insects are declining by 1 to 2 percent annually, with land use changes, pesticide use, and climate change all contributing to the decline of wild pollinators, which are essential for increasing crop yields and ensuring the production of healthy food.

4. The researchers used data from experimental farms across Asia, Africa, Europe, and Latin America to show how much crop production has been lost due to insufficient pollination. They also assessed the health impacts and economic losses resulting from this issue. The study found that while lower-income countries suffer the most from reduced agricultural income, middle- and higher-income countries face greater health problems, as they have higher rates of diseases like diabetes.
