Answer: D. After the study of lizards, the naturalist planned to travel to remote lizard habitats.

Explanation: "to travel to remote lizard habitats" is the infinitive phrase being used as an adverb, and it explains why the naturalist was studying lizards. It is formed by using "to" + the verb. The infinitive can appear by itself, or it can be part of a larger infinitive phrase.
