Correct answer is (a) Zoological parks
The best explanation: Zoological park is the odd one out since it is an approach of ex-situ conservation while the rest is used for in-situ conservation. The off-site or the protection and conservation of species (genetic resources) outside their natural habitat (populations of plant or animal species) is known as ex-situ conservation.
