As the temperature keeps rising in Antarctica, the risk of extinction faced by species that cannot migrate to the colder south has been increasing.
A. As the temperature keeps rising in Antarctica, the risk of extinction faced by species that cannot migrate to the colder south has been increasing. Correct
sounds better than B
B. As the temperature keeps rising in Antarctica, species unable to migrate to the colder south have been increasingly facing the risk of extinction. Incorrect
changes meaning; risk has increased, not facing the risk
C. As the temperature keeps rising in Antarctica, species that cannot migrate to the colder south are increasingly facing the risk of extinction. Incorrect
present perfect tense needed
D. The temperature keeps rising in Antarctica, and as a result, species that cannot migrate to the colder south have been increasingly facing the risk of extinction. Incorrect
same as B
E. The temperature keeps rising in Antarctica, resulting in species unable to migrate to the colder south and are increasingly facing the risk of extinction. Incorrect
parallelism and meaning issue

As the temperature keeps rising in Antarctica, the risk of extinction faced by species that cannot migrate to the colder south has been increasing.
Meaning alongwith correct grammatical structure are the time-tested keys to solve 'completely underlined' SC question. The stimulus means that that with the rise in temperature, the species are more likely to become extinct.
A. As the temperature keeps rising in Antarctica, the risk of extinction faced by species that cannot migrate to the colder south has been increasing.
Tense error..present continuos versus present perfect continuous
B. As the temperature keeps rising in Antarctica, species unable to migrate to the colder south have been increasingly facing the risk of extinction.
Tense error once again..present continuos versus present perfect continuous
C. As the temperature keeps rising in Antarctica, species that cannot migrate to the colder south are increasingly facing the risk of extinction.
No Tense error..both present continuos..CORRECT option
D. The temperature keeps rising in Antarctica, and as a result, species that cannot migrate to the colder south have been increasingly facing the risk of extinction.
Cause and effect..is making the sentence less concise..not preferred vis-a-vis (C)
E. The temperature keeps rising in Antarctica, resulting in species unable to migrate to the colder south and are increasingly facing the risk of extinction.
Subject of 'are' is ambiguous..whether temperature or the species
(C) is correct option
