Answer: A.Santa Ana

Explanation:

This description perfectly agrees with the Santa Ana Winds (also called Santana Winds), which are due to a meteorological phenomenon that occurs between southern California and northern Baja California during autum and early winter (although they can also occur in the other seasons of the year). In this sense, strong winds are caused by high air pressure circulating clockwise at high altitudes in the Great Basin between Sierra Nevada and the Rocky Mountains (and the Mojave Desert).

It should be noted that these winds are characteristic of the region, which dry the vegetation, knock down electric utility poles and trees, and sometimes transport hot embers, being the main cause of fire spread.

Explain how the organisms in the food web might be affected if more sea otters were introduced into the area
mash [69]

Answer:

The other organisms in the food web's population would decrease because the sea otter is the top predator in the area, and if there are more sea otters, then the other organisms would decrease because the sea otters would prey on them. (Except for seaweed, sea snails, and periwinkle, they would increase because the organisms that consume them are decreasing, or they have more food because of the lack of competition.)
