Our of the two, the in situ conservation measures will help in the survival oflarger number of species.
In situ is onsite conservation, which implies that species are conserved in their natural habitat.
To conserve species in their natural habitat, the intire ecosystem has to be conserved, which include other organisms, biotic and abiotic component of the ecosystem associated with the target species.
Hence, in situ conservation helps in the survival of larger number of species.
