Read the following description of protected areas for in situ conservation.

A) Regions with highest levels of species richness and high levels of species endemism.

B) Tracts of forest serving as refuges for biodiversity and are protected by local communities.

Select the option with the correct terms of the above two protected areas.

Biodiversity hotspots are the regions with very high levels of species richness and high degree of endemism. Although all the biodiversity hotspots put together cover less than two per cent of the Earth’s land area, the number of species they collectively harbour is extremely high.
Sacred groves are areas of forest that are considered sacred or holy by local communities and are protected from human activities such as logging, grazing, or agricultural use. Sacred groves can serve as important refuges for biodiversity, preserving threatened species and provide ecological services such as water conservation, soil conservation, and carbon sequestration.
