Answer:

High sea surface temperature and High rainfall

Explanation:

<em>El Niño</em> is a pattern of climate that causes the unusual warming of surface waters in the eastern part of the tropical Pacific Ocean. It affects the temperature of the ocean and changes the strength and speed of its currents, coastal fisheries' health, and local weather from South America to Australia and beyond.

It begins when warm water in the western part of the tropical Pacific Ocean moves toward the eastern part of the tropical Pacific Ocean along the equator. Usually, warm water pools near Indonesia and the Philippines, but during <em>El Niño</em>, the warmest water of the Pacific Ocean assembles at the eastern part of the tropical pacific ocean.

Moreover, trade winds weaken in the central and western part of the tropical Pacific Ocean that weaken the upwelling of nutrient-full cold water to cool warm surface water at the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean. This warm surface water of eastern part of tropical Pacific Ocean warms the atmosphere that empowers moisture-rich air to develop into thunderstorms.

In this way <em>El Niño - Southern Oscillation Event </em>causes the rise in temperature of sea surface and high rainfall at eastern part of the tropical Pacific Ocean.

For growing populations in developing countries, explain why the transition from eating grains to eating meat is challenging the
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

A trend is seen in developing countries that people are transitioning from eating grains to eating meat which can be a challenge for the global agribusiness system.

This is so because due to more consumption of meat, the quantity of food or crops produced is more than needed and sell at very lower prices which affects the agribusiness system. People are finding meat as healthier (protein source) and chemical-free and consuming it for health benefits, that left the grains and crop market at a lower price.

Hence, eating meat is a challenge for the global agribusiness system.
