Solution

The two extinction risks that may be a direct result of the pet trade are overharvesting and exotic species introduction. This is because the pet trade often involves capturing wild animals (overharvesting) and transporting them to different parts of the world (exotic species introduction). If these animals escape or are released into the wild, they can become invasive species that disrupt local ecosystems. So, the correct answer is c. overharvesting and exotic species introduction.
