{'biosphere reserves': [1, 1, 7, 2], 'national parks': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'habitat': [1, 0, 0, 0], 'conservation': [3, 1, 9, 28], 'particular species': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'areas': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'special category': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'particular wild animal': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'sanctuaries': [1, 0, 0, 1], 'land': [0, 0, 0, 1]}

Option 1 states that National Parks are a special category of protected areas where people are an integral part of the system. This statement is incorrect. National Parks are actually areas set aside by governments for the conservation of natural and cultural resources. People are allowed to visit these areas, but they are not considered an integral part of the system.

Option 2 states that Sanctuaries are concerned with the conservation of particular species. This statement is correct. Sanctuaries are designated areas that aim to protect and conserve specific species and their habitats. These areas provide a safe haven for these species to thrive.

Option 3 states that Biosphere Reserves are connected with the habitat of a particular wild animal. This statement is incorrect. Biosphere Reserves are actually areas that aim to balance the conservation of biodiversity with sustainable development. They are not specifically connected to the habitat of a particular wild animal.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 2, as only statement 2 is correct.
