In-situ (on site) conservation is conservation and protection of the whole ecosystem and its biodiversity at all levels, in order to protect the threatened species. Two in-situ methods are being used to save biodiversity viz., hotspots and protected areas. Protected areas include national parks, sanctuaries, biosphere reserves and sacred groves. Ex-situ (off site) conservation is conservation of selected rare plants/animals in places outside their natural homes. Ex-situ conservation includes offsite collections, seed banks, gene banks, in vitro fertilization, botanical gardens, cryopreservation techniques and tissue culture.
