The concept of 'Biodiversity Hotspots' was propounded by British environmentalist Norman Myers in the year 1988, and two main conditions are mandatory to declare an area as a hotspot: that region must have at least 1,500 endemic plant species and that region must have lost at least 70% or more of its original vegetative land. 2. India currently has a total of four officially recognized biodiversity hotspot regions, which are: Western Ghats, Eastern Himalaya, Indo-Burma Region, and Sundaland (including the Nicobar Islands). 3. Under the 'In-situ' conservation strategy, organisms and plants are conserved outside their natural habitat (such as in a botanical garden, zoo, or gene bank), whereas national parks, wildlife sanctuaries, and biosphere reserves fall under 'Ex-situ' conservation. Which of the above statement(s) is/are correct?
