The process of conservation of species outside their natural habitat is known as Ex-situ conservation. This involves conservation of genetic resources, as well as wild and cultivated or species, and draws on a diverse body of techniques and facilities.
Biosphere reserves protect larger areas of natural habitat, and often include one or more National Parks and/or preserves, along with buffer zones that are open to some economic uses.
So, biosphere reserves are not an ex-situ conservation.
Thus, the correct answer is option (D).
