Each biosphere reserve, in order to be an effective unit of conservation and perpetuation of genetic diversity, should be of sufficiently large size and serve as a bench mark to measure the immediate and long-term impact of human interaction with the ecosystems. Each biosphere reserve should consist of a core zone surrounded by a buffer zone. The core zone should represent a natural undisturbed or minimally disturbed area representative of the particular ecosystem and may also include centers of endemism and genetic richness. The buffer zone, also often termed as 'manipulation zone', is for research, education, demonstration, development of proper techniques for eco-restoration, and other manipulative methods for utilization and harmonious interaction with people. Therefore, both Assertion & Reason are true and the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion. Hence, the correct answer is option 1.
