D VINOD · Accepted Answer

## CORE INFORMATION
✓ **Answer**: C
## CONCEPT FRAMEWORK
 **Primary Concept**: In situ conservation of biodiversity
 **Related Topics**: Biodiversity conservation, protected areas, ex situ conservation
 **Prerequisites**: Understanding of different methods used to conserve biodiversity.
## SOLUTION PATHWAY
**Given Information**:
The question asks to identify the option that is not a method of in situ conservation.
**Method & Steps**:
1. Understand In situ conservation:
In situ conservation refers to the conservation of species within their natural habitats.  This involves protecting ecosystems and habitats to maintain biodiversity.
2. Analyze the options:
* **Biosphere Reserve:** A biosphere reserve is a protected area that encompasses a variety of ecosystems and is designed to promote biodiversity conservation. This is an in situ method.
* **Wildlife Sanctuary:** A wildlife sanctuary is a protected area primarily focused on conserving wildlife. This is an in situ method.
* **Botanical Garden:** A botanical garden is an ex situ method of conservation. Plants are cultivated outside their natural habitats.
* **Sacred Grove:** A sacred grove is a forest area protected by local communities due to religious or cultural beliefs. This is an in situ method.
3. Identify the incorrect option:
The only option that doesn't represent in situ conservation is the Botanical Garden.
## OPTION ANALYSIS
A ✓: Biosphere Reserves are protected areas where species are conserved in their natural habitats, making it a method of in situ conservation.
B :x: Wildlife Sanctuaries are areas where animals are protected within their natural habitat, making it a method of in situ conservation.
C :x: Botanical Gardens involve cultivating plants in a controlled environment outside their natural habitat, making it an ex situ conservation method.
D :x: Sacred Groves are traditionally protected areas where species are conserved in their natural habitats, making it a method of in situ conservation.
## LEARNING AIDS
 **Common Mistakes**:
  1.Confusing in situ and ex situ conservation methods:  Remember that in situ means 'in place', while ex situ means 'out of place'.
  2.Failing to understand the purpose of each type of protected area:
Each protected area has specific goals and methods of conservation.
 **Quick Tips**:
  1.Focus on whether the species are conserved within their natural environment.
  2.Use mnemonics to remember the key differences between in situ and ex situ conservation.
