Solution

The correct option is B A and D only
Botanical garden is one of the taxonomical collections of varieties of plant species. Plant species in these gardens are grown for identification purposes and each plant is labelled indicating its botanical/scientific name and its family. Also, it is not necessary that botanical gardens are always associated with zoological parks.

Museum is also one of the taxonomical aids which will have a collection of animal and plant specimens for study and research purposes. The aim of a museum is to collect preserved plant and animal specimens for study and reference.
