Answer:

Option (1).

Step-by-step explanation:

Sixth mass extinction is also known as Anthropocene extinction. This extinction has destroyed large number of plants and animal species.

The sixth mass extinction is mainly due to human activities like fragmentation, deforestation and pollution. Over growth of human population and industrialization is responsible for megafaunal extinction.

Thus, the correct answer is option (1).
