The correct option is A
Extinction

Death of all the organisms, belonging to a particular species, is known as extinction. Once a species becomes extinct, they no longer exist. For example, all species of dinosaurs are extinct. Apart from dinosaurs, many other species have been extinct over time and the cause of their extinction is either natural or by human interference.
