Answer 1

The correct option is A in situ

In situ and ex situ, both are the methods of conservation.
In-situ conservation is the conservation of genetic resources in natural populations of plant or animal species, such as forest.
Off-site conservation is called as ex-situ conservation, which deals with conservation of an endangered species outside its natural habitat. Zoo and botanical gardens are forms of ex situ conservation.
