(D) The primary causes of biodiversity loss are often referred to as the '$Evil Quartet$'.These include:$1$. Habitat loss and fragmentation: This is the most important cause driving animals and plants to extinction.$2$. Over-exploitation: Humans have over-exploited many species (e.g.,Steller's sea cow,passenger pigeon).$3$. Alien species invasions: When alien species are introduced unintentionally or deliberately,some of them turn invasive and cause the decline or extinction of indigenous species.$4$. Coextinctions: When a species becomes extinct,the plant and animal species associated with it in an obligatory way also become extinct.Since all the options listed ($A$,$B$,and $C$) are major causes of biodiversity loss,the correct answer is $D$.
