Answer 2

The correct answer is "a sense of urgency".

Step-by-step explanation:

The urgency of an oil spill led Ladies' Aide Society of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, to raise money to send volunteers who were cleaning the oil from the skin and feathers of affected wildlife. The life of the animals is in great danger when the body is contaminated with oil, since some chemical components of the oil can interfere with some chemical substances such as the pheromones that marine animals secrete to carry out vital processes.

Have a nice day!
