Option D, Habitats may be washed away or buried under sediment.
Explanation:
Floods lead to excessive drainage of an area thereby making small animals susceptible to the resulting mudslide. Burrowing animals are the hardest hit as their habitat gets completely destroyed for a longer period of time. Their burrows either collapse or are blocked by flowing debris thereby blocking sunlight, reducing oxygen levels and suffocating the animals
Hence, option D is correct
