Correct answer is (d) In-situ conservation
For explanation: The on-site or the protection and conservation of species (genetic resources) in their natural habitat (populations of plant or animal species) is called in-situ conservation. In this, we conserve and protect the whole ecosystem for the protection of endangered species.
