Text Solution

Verified by Experts
The correct answer is:
C

Sacred groves are patches of forest protected by local communities due to religious and cultural beliefs. Because they are left undisturbed, they act as natural habitats where many rare, endangered, and threatened species can survive safely.

So, their main ecological importance is in-situ conservation of biodiversity, especially rare species.
