Black lives

Black should make life as long as it's possible, even if it means losing the marked stones.

[Diagram]

Black dies in a snapback (W5 at 1)

Should White play at W3, the snapback will destroy Black's chance to make two eyes and the whole group dies.

[Diagram]

Black dies outright

If Black plays atari at B2, White captures three stones with W3, which also destroys any chance of a second eye.
