The right answer is decreased nonshivering thermogenesis.
The increase in metabolism allows an increase in the production of heat. Newborns use their brown fat as a source of heat, it is a non shivering thermogenesis.
The second mechanism for increasing heat in humans is increased muscle tone and shivering, but in the newborn there is no chill.
Bivalves are protostomes, as they belong the to phyla Protostomia. They are freshwater/marine molluscs, whose body is covered by a protecting shell. They do not have a head, and some of their examples include oysters, clams, mussels etc.
The graph shows, in a period of time between 1978 and 2010. Therefore, it's related to the last 50 years, not the last 100 years, meaning that alternative D is wrong. The amount of sea ice shown in the graph is shown in the scale of million square miles. So, as the graph shows an initial value around 3.2 (3 millions and 2 hundred miles) and it ends up in a value around 2.2 (2 millions and 2 hundred miles), still the real values are around 2.8 (2 million and 8 hundred thousands initially) and 2.0 (2 millions at the end), having a lower value of 1.8 (1 million and 8 hundred thousand); So, in both scenarios, arctic sea ice has shrunk by 1,000,000 (1.0) square miles, being under 2,000,000, not over. Therefore, the highest number to be inside this amount is 2,000, so the correct answer is A: Arctic sea ice has shrunk by over 2,000 square miles in the last 50 years.
So the fire won't have as much oxygen than it already does.
