Imagine these are tropical islands. which island would likely encounter the highest rate of species extinction if these islands were subject to unregulated, commercial logging in the rainforest? use

The correct answer is island C.

The island C is the smallest and the most distant from the mainland.

This means that this island would have a small rate of immigration of different species. Due to its small size and isolated position, it could not be able to counteract the effects of unregulated logging that would destroy the habitat, leading to the extinction of species.
