参考答案
正确答案：A
解析："... a counterclaim that these were 'natural' or 'raw' materials and therefore did not qualify for patents." Choice B is not correct because a high percentage of the materials originated in plant and animal germplasm taken from the developing world. Choice C is not correct because barely a cent of royalties had been paid. Choice D is a claim against pirates in the Third World, but it is not a justification for using plants and animals from the developing world.
