5. Increase in population and excess use of natural resources

What is the relationship between temp and orca survival?
postnew [5]

The relationship between temperature and orca survival is that they live in waters that are always at 0 degrees, therefore their prey will perish if the temperature increases.

Orcas maintain a body temperature that is comparable to that of humans. Orcas, however, lose a lot more heat to the environment than humans do since they live in water. Orcas have developed a variety of strategies to attempt and keep their heat under check in reaction to this. Orcas maintain a body temperature that is comparable to that of humans.
