Correct Answer: A
Solution :
On a global basis, the conservation of biodiversity has been addressed by eminent conservationists. They identified for maximum protection and certain 'biodiversity hotspots' regions with very high levels of species richness and high degree of endemism (that is, species confined to that region and not found anywhere else). Initially, 25 biodiversity hotspots were identified but subsequently nine more have been added to the list, bringing the total number of biodiversity hotspots in the world to 34. These hotspots are also regions of accelerated habitat loss.
