How does the change in ocean temperatures impact weather and life on land? a) warm ocean water acts as an energy sink, preventing water's evaporation into the atmosphere. this results in less precipitation. b) as the poles and associated ice melts, the oceans get cooler, less water is evaporating into our atmosphere, resulting in prolonged drought. c) as the poles and associated ice melts, the oceans get cooler, resulting in greater evaporation of water and therefore, larger catastrophic storms. d) warmer ocean temperature means more water is evaporated into the atmosphere, water that supplies the energy for hurricanes to grow and move over land.

Researchers determine that the biodiversity in a woodland region is declining. they identify two major threats to the region's biodiversity, a method to address each threat, and the expected outcome of each method. this information is shown in the table. a) reforestation would not benefit many species because most forest species live on the ground. b) reforestation would take the longest time to be effective because trees take several years to grow. c) biological augmentation would benefit only a few species because is is typically not very effective. d) biological augmentation would take less time to ve effective because it targets the majority of prey species.
