The species that are vulnerable to extinction do not include the species that:
1. have high genetic variability
2. are hunted or harvested by people
3. have a declining population size
4. are local endemic species
The current extinction is called a ‘biodiversity crisis’ because:
1. the extinctions are not a natural phenomenon
2. the rates are high and is due to the human activities
3. the extinction is mainly affecting animals rather than plants
4. only keystone species are being lost
