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.

This is because a slow reproduction rate limits the species' ability to recover from declines in population, and very little genetic variation reduces its ability to adapt to environmental changes. Together, these factors significantly increase the risk of extinction in a changing environment.
