Answer: a species with a slow reproduction rate and very little genetic variation living in a changing environment.
Reason: low genetic variation limits ability to adapt to new conditions, and slow reproduction reduces the population’s capacity to recover or evolve quickly; a changing environment increases selection pressure, so extinction risk is highest.
