The species that would have the greatest chance of going extinct is:

**a species with a slow reproduction rate and very little genetic variation living in a changing environment.**

Species with slow reproduction rates typically have longer recovery times from population declines, and low genetic variation limits their ability to adapt to changes in the environment. When combined with a changing environment, these factors significantly increase their risk of extinction.
