The sentence states that a fungus toxic to amphibians will be (i) _______ to the already (ii) ______ African Foam-nest Tree Frog whose numbers have been dwindling due to deforestation.
- The blank (ii) describes the frog population condition. Since its numbers are dwindling, "imperiled" (D) meaning endangered or at risk fits best.
- The blank (i) describes the effect of a toxic fungus on the frog. The fungus will be "disastrous" (B) or harmful to the imperiled species.
Thus, the best choices are:
(i) disastrous
(ii) imperiled
