Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Amphibians (frogs, toads, salamanders) are highly sensitive to environmental changes, pollution, habitat loss, and diseases like chytridiomycosis.
As a result, they have the highest percentage of endangered species among major animal groups.
Mammals, reptiles, and insects also face threats, but amphibians are the most at risk globally.
