Step-by-Step Analysis
We are given five groups of animals and a set of climate-change-related problems to match to each group. The provided answer key shows the intended pairings as: 1 → A, 2 → D, 3 → B, 4 → E, 5 → C. Here is a detailed analysis of each option to understand why each match is appropriate and why the other options are less suitable.
1. Koalas, deer and birds
- A. Forest Fires: This pairing aligns well with koalas, whose habitats are heavily affected by wildfires, especially in Australian ecosystems. Forest fires destroy eucalyptus habitats that koalas rely on, and they also threaten deer and various bird species by reducing available shelter and food sources. The intensity and frequency of fires under climate change intensify this risk. Therefore, A is a strong match.
- B. Changing Seasons: While changing seasons can influence food availability and migration patterns, the immediate, well-documented impact for koalas and many Australian fauna is linked more strongly to fires than to seasonal timing alone.
- C. Drought: Drought affects water and vegetation, but the most direct, vividly documented connection for koalas and some birds/deer is fire disturbance rather than drought alone.
- D. Melting Ices: This is less directly relevant to forests in Australia where koalas and man......Login to view full explanationLog in for full answers
