Explanation:

Probability is a mathematical concept that quantifies the chance or likelihood of an event occurring. In environmental conservation, it measures the likelihood of different outcomes from conservation actions. Options a (area), b (number of animals), and c (cost) are not what probability measures. Probability focuses on the likelihood of outcomes, not physical quantities like area or count, or financial aspects like cost.
