Answer 1

Answer:

Which of the following statements is true?

If a species is well-adapted the environment, they cannot become extinct.

Explanation:

Darwin's law of natural selection defines this, the adaptation of a species to an environment and passing of such traits to the offspring make such species survive and never become extinct  

Answer 2

Answer:

D) Species with low genetic diversity are at a higher risk for extinction than species with high genetic diversity.

Explanation:

I don't exactly get why everyone believes the comment above me sense, even if you are well adapted to the environment something out of your control could happen to cause your extinction. Maybe an invasive species may come out of nowhere and kill of your kind, or mass hunting of your kind might wipe you out. What I'm trying to say is there is no guarantee that your species is safe.
