B Wildlife Safari Parks
C Botanical Gardens
D Seed Banks

Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) Sacred Groves

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

(A) Sacred Groves
In situ conservation involves the protection of species in their natural habitats. Sacred groves are tracts of forest that are protected by local communities due to religious and cultural beliefs, making them an example of in situ conservation.
Ex situ conservation involves the protection of species outside their natural habitats. Wildlife safari parks, botanical gardens, and seed banks are examples of ex situ conservation, where plants and animals are kept in specially managed environments.

Apply the relevant identity from the chapter and substitute the values established in the previous step, keeping the original constraint in view.

Use the simplified expression to isolate the unknown, then plug the result back into the question setup to confirm the working is internally consistent.

Cross-check against a boundary or limiting case. Both the dimensional balance and the qualitative behaviour at the extreme should agree with the candidate answer.

Combine the steps above to identify the correct option. The remaining choices each fail at least one of the consistency, dimensional, or boundary checks.
