Shira wants to do well on her next test so her grade in the class does not drop. This is an example of which type of motivation?

Shira is motivated by the outcome of keeping her class grade from dropping, rather than by enjoyment or interest in studying itself. A grade is an external reward or consequence, so this is extrinsic motivation. Intrinsic motivation would come from doing the work because she finds it interesting or satisfying.
