The correct answer is - C. desertification.

The changes in climate that contributed to big droughts in the past few decades in Africa, as well as the irresponsible actions in the matter of water usage, like the leaching, led to desertification in areas where the desert was not present till recently. The Sahara Desert has been slowly moving its southern border towards south, and areas that were once inhabited by people, or where wildlife was roaming, are now turned into deserts, and this causes lots of problems in economic and social aspects, as well as destroying the environment and endangering lots of wild species of animals and plants.

Which of these are expected to happen all over the globe? Enter the tropics would expand with the pool surface temperatures at t
drek231 [11]

The tropics would expand.

Explanation:

With the global temperatures rising the Earth is projected to have multiple changes, climatic ones and even in the shape of the landmasses. Because of the rising global temperatures the ice at the poles is expected to melt, if not all than in solid amount, which in turn will rise the sea level.

Higher sea level will mean that there will be less land mass, but also that the land mass will be under bigger maritime influence when it comes to the climate. The ocean currents also are expected to gradually become dominated by warm ocean currents, while the cold ones will be much less and with much lesser global influence. That will cause expansion of the tropics, mostly toward north, as toward south there is little land mass, and such expansion will totally change the landscape, the habitats, the diversity and type of species present in certain areas.
