MAB stands for

AMan and Biome

BMan and Biodiversity

CMan and the Biosphere ✓ Correct

DMan and Biosciences

Correct answer: (C) Man and the Biosphere

Explanation

MAB is UNESCO's Man and the Biosphere Programme, promoting sustainable links between people and nature.

Man and Biome names an ecological unit but is not what this acronym expands to.

Man and Biodiversity mixes in a related term yet is not the programme's title.

Man and Biosciences points to laboratory science, unrelated to this intergovernmental programme.

The programme designates biosphere reserves worldwide that balance conservation with development.

It was launched in 1971 and maintains the World Network of Biosphere Reserves.
