Question

which effect is one likely result of a forest fire?
○ extinction
○ adaptation
○ speciation
○ forced migration

Explanation:

A forest fire can destroy habitats, leading to loss of species unable to survive the event or find new suitable environments. Extinction (local or even species - wide in severe cases) is a likely outcome as many organisms in the forest ecosystem may not be able to adapt quickly enough or escape the destruction caused by the fire. Adaptation is a long - term process for populations, speciation is the formation of new species (not a direct immediate result of a forest fire), and forced migration is more about movement while extinction is about loss of species.

Answer:

A. extinction
