Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions.

It is estimated that over 99 percent of all species that ever existed have become extinct. What causes
extinction? When a species is no longer adapted to a changed environment, it may perish. The exact causes
of a species’death vary from situation to situation. Rapid ecological change may render an environment
hostile to a species. For example, temperatures may change and a species may not be able to adapt. Food
resources may be affected by environmental changes, which will then cause problems for a species requiring
these resources. Other species may become better adapted to an environment, resulting in competition
and utimately, in the death of a species.

The fossil record reveals that extinction has occurred throughout the history of Earth. Recent analyses have
also revealed that on some occasions many species became extinct at the same time – a mass extinction. One
of the best- known examples of mass extinction occurred 65 million years ago with the demise of dinosaurs
and many other forms of life. Perhaps the largest mass extinction was the one that occurred 225 million
years ago, when approximately 95 percent of all species died, mass extinctions can be caused by a relatively
rapid change in the environment and can be worsened by the close interrelationship of many species. If, for
example, something were to happen to destroy much of the plankton in the oceans, then the oxygen content
of Earth would drop, affecting even organisms not living in the oceans. Such a change would probably lead
to a mass extinction.

One interesting, and controversial, finding is that extinctions during the past 250 million years have tended
to be more intense every 26 million years. This periodic extinction might be due to intersection of the
Earth’s orbit with a cloud of comets, but this theory is purely speculative.Some researchers have also
speculated that extinction may often be random. That is, certain species may be eliminated and others may
survive for no particular reason. A species’ survival may have nothing to do with its ability or inability to
adapt. If so, some of evolutionary history may reflect a sequence of essentially random events.
