Answer:

Seal

Explanation:

    According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the ringed seal (Pusa hispida) and the bearded seal (Erignathus barbatus) have been officially recognized as at risk due to habitat loss due to melting ice in the Arctic Ocean.

    The US Endangered Species Act, which sets out a list of animals under these conditions that require special care for their preservation, says that an endangered species "is any species that is likely to become threatened in the near future in all its habitat. or a significant portion of it. "

    The decision will not result in immediate restrictions on human actions, such as hunting or subsistence fishing by natives in Alaska, the US agency says.

    However, federal funds that fund projects with potential to reach seal species should be reviewed. The measure aims to ensure seal protection, according to NOAA.

Which of the following best explains why the latitude of a region influences its climate?
Rudik [331]

Answer:

"The latitude of a region determines how much sunlight the area receives" this statement says about why the latitude of a region influences its climate.

Explanation:

The latitude determines the sunlight of the area receives because, the more the latitude the sharper will be angle of the sun's rays which will reach the surface. Means that the rays of the sun are being spread over the broader area. Hence, More the latitude receive will be the less than the lower latitude areas located nearer to the equator. As, we know the sun's ray first strikes over the Earth's surface which is near the equator as these places receive direct solar radiation. At greater latitude the solar radiations gets spread in more area and hence the temperature also reduces.

2 ways humans have contributed to that is: 1) pastoral nomadism 2) little to no settlements to increase water supply 

how it impacted the environment: so now the environment there is sandy, only organisms adapted for those extreme environment can live there ex. camel, cactus, etc., 

how it impacted quality of life: quality of life diminished, not enough water to sufficiently feed the populations, people live in extreme poverty, people are moving away, and the climate is very dry and hot, pretty much not a place anyone would want to live
