If you were studying the effects of climate change on the geographic ranges of species living in the mountains and your climate
records showed that mean temperatures were increasing, which species would you be MOST concerned about from a conservation standpoint? -a species that is a habitat generalist and lives at low elevations
-a species that is a habitat specialist and lives at the highest elevations
-a species that is a habitat specialist and lives at low elevations
-a species that is a habitat generalist and lives at middle elevations
-a species that is a habitat specialist and lives at middle elevations
A species that is habitat specialist and lives at the highest elevation.
Explanation:
An ecosystem consist of plants, animals as well as micro-organisms but due to climate change the plants as well as animals are in danger . The case that has been provided in the question where due to climate change the temperature rises as a result the species living at the highest elevation are in problem .
Due to rise in temperature the snow is melting and the sea water level is rising. The animals and plants adapt themselves according to the climate where they are residing but suddenly if climatic change take place they will be unable to survive.
The animals which are mostly affected due to climatic change are snow leopard, polar bear, giant panda.
