All biodiversity hotspots put together cover about how much percent of the earth's land area ?

Assertion : Biodiversity hotspots are the regions which possess high levels of species richness, high degree of endemism and no loss habitats. Reason : Total number of biodiversity hotspots in the world is 32 with two of these hotspots found in India.

Which of the following statements regarding biodiversity hotspots are incorrect? (i) High endemism (ii) High level of species richness (iii) Total number is 34 in the world (iv) Five of these occur in India (v) High alien species invasion (vi) Cover less than 2% of the earth's land area, but if properly conserved, they can reduce extinctions by about 30%

State true/false in the following statements. Correct each false statements to make it true. (i) The in-situ conservation strategies emphasise protection of whole ecosystem, therfore its biodiversity at all levels is protected. (ii) Biodiversity hotspots put together cover 2.4% of the earth's land area. (iii) In india, ecologically unique and biodiversity rich regions are legally protected as sanctuaries, national parks and biosphere reserves. (iv) In Uttar Pradesh, the sacred groves are the last refuges for a large number of rare and threatened plants.

Assertion : All the biodiversity hotspots put together cover less than 2 per cent of the Earth's land area. Reason : The strict protection of the hotspots could reduce the ongoing mass extinction by almost 19 per cent.
