Question

what do we call organisms that are heavily protected in an attempt to keep them from going extinct? adapted native endangered invasive

Explanation:

• "Adapted" refers to organisms that have changed to fit their environment, not protection from extinction.
• "Native" means an organism is from a particular place originally, not about protection from extinction.
• "Endangered" specifically refers to organisms at risk of extinction and thus are heavily protected.
• "Invasive" refers to organisms that are non - native and cause harm to an ecosystem, not about protection from extinction.

endangered
