    Explanation:
    • Bioremediation refers to the process of using microorganisms to degrade waste matter. There are two methods of degrading waste matter i.e., In-situ and Ex-situ bioremediation. Where, In-situ means conversion of environmental pollutants into harmless forms by introducing micro-organisms. And Ex-situ involves removal of waste materials from their place origin and their collection at another place to facilitate microbial degradation. Hence, Statement 1 is correct.
    • Vermicomposting is the phenomenon of compost formation of waste by earthworms. Hence, statement 2 is correct.
