Answer is Wrong!
The correct answer is (b), Western Ghats.
The Western Ghats is a mountain range in the western part of India. It is one of the world’s eight biodiversity hotspots, which are regions that contain exceptional concentrations of biodiversity that are under threat from human activities. The Western Ghats are home to a wide variety of plant and animal species, including many that are found nowhere else in the world. The region is also important for its cultural heritage, as it is home to many different ethnic groups and languages.
The other options are incorrect because:
- Sundarban is a mangrove forest in the Bay of Bengal. It is home to a variety of plant and animal species, including the Bengal tiger. However, it is not a biodiversity hotspot.
- Manas is a national park in northeastern India. It is home to a variety of plant and animal species, including the rhinoceros. However, it is not a biodiversity hotspot.
- Cherrapunji is a town in northeastern India. It is known for its heavy rainfall. However, it is not a biodiversity hotspot.
