Scientific research shows that our global climate is changing. Ocean temperatures and acidity are increasing, and the global sea level is rising. Which of the following best predicts an outcome of this global climate change in a marine ecosystem?

A. More species will be able to survive due to the less extreme temperatures in the ocean.

B. The increased acidity will make it more difficult for harmful bacteria to survive.

C. Tectonic plate activity will increase and produce warmer ocean temperatures.

D. Many marine species will not be able to adjust quickly enough to survive.



The majority of marine organisms are found in coastal regions, rather than the open ocean. Which of the following best explains why?

A. Ocean currents bring nutrient-rich water into coastal regions.

B. The shallow waters of coastal regions provide less oxygen.

C. Salinity is usually much higher in coastal regions.

D. Temperatures are cooler in coastal regions.



Which of the following is the best example of a way human lifestyles affect environmental systems?

A. Using radioactive materials causes ground pollution as it causes methane to seep into the ground.

B. Burning fossil fuels causes water pollution by decreasing the amount of water vapor in the atmosphere.

C. Deforestation causes acid rain by decreasing carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere.

D. Using aerosols that contain chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) decreases the amount of protective ozone (O3).
