In this question, we are given a sentence and we need to identify if there is any error in the underlined part. Let`s analyze each option:

Option 1: A - The error lies in the underlined part "home of 2600 plant species". The correct preposition to use here is "to", so the correct phrase should be "home to 2600 plant species".

Option 2: B - The error lies in the underlined part "and this habitat fragmentation". The word "this" is unnecessary in the sentence. Removing it would make the sentence grammatically correct.

Option 3: C - The error lies in the underlined part "can pose a serious threat to endemic plants". There is no error in this part, so option 3 is incorrect.

Option 4: D - The underlined part "No error" indicates that there is no error in the sentence. If we agree with this, then option 4 is correct.

Based on the analysis above, option 1 is the correct answer as there is an error in the underlined part A.
