Biodiversity conservation aims to protect plants, animals, microorganisms, and their habitats.
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 13: Biodiversity and Conservation Biodiversity Conservation - In situ Ex situ Hotspots
In situ conservation protects species in their natural habitats through protected areas such as national parks, wildlife sanctuaries, and biosphere reserves.
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 13: Biodiversity and Conservation Biodiversity Conservation - In situ Ex situ Hotspots
Biosphere reserves are examples of in situ conservation because species are protected in their natural habitats.
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 13: Biodiversity and Conservation Biodiversity Conservation - In situ Ex situ Hotspots
Zoos and botanical gardens are examples of ex situ conservation because they conserve organisms outside their natural habitats.
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 13: Biodiversity and Conservation Biodiversity Conservation - In situ Ex situ Hotspots
Zoological parks protect organisms outside their natural habitats and are therefore examples of ex situ conservation.
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 13: Biodiversity and Conservation Biodiversity Conservation - In situ Ex situ Hotspots
Wildlife sanctuaries are an example of in situ conservation, where species are protected in their natural habitats.
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 13: Biodiversity and Conservation Biodiversity Conservation - In situ Ex situ Hotspots
Endemic species are restricted to a particular geographical region and are not naturally found elsewhere.

Co-extinction occurs when the extinction of one species causes the extinction of another species that depends on it, such as a plant and its pollinator or a host and its parasite.

Alien invasive species may outcompete native species, alter habitats, and contribute to biodiversity loss.
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 13: Biodiversity and Conservation Loss of Biodiversity - Alien Invasion Co-extinction Mass Extinction - Evil Quartet
Ecosystem diversity is one of the three levels of biodiversity and refers to the variety of habitats and ecosystems present in a region.

Coral reefs are among the most species-rich ecosystems and are often referred to as the "rainforests of the sea."
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 13: Biodiversity and Conservation Loss of Biodiversity - Alien Invasion Co-extinction Mass Extinction - Evil Quartet
Alien species invasions are one of the major causes of biodiversity loss. They often reduce biodiversity by displacing native species.
