Answer:

During El Niño, the energy that the ocean transfers to the air is lower than normal. This leaves the air cooler, which consequently leaves Christchurch with lower temperatures than normal.

Explanation:

Christchurch, in New Zealand, is a region that is close to the Equator and therefore, it is a region that usually presents high temperatures, as it receives solar energy with a lot of intensity. In addition, the energy that the ocean emanates in the air, close to this region, is high, which allows high temperatures to be observed. However, during El Niño, this energy is emitted at lower intensities. This causes the air that circulates in Christchurch to become colder, causing the temperature to drop considerably.

bagirrra123 [75]

10.) <em>Phytoplankton.</em>

Explanation:

9.) A primary consumer feeds on primary producers, of all the options given Humpback Whales, are the only ones meeting the criteria in the options given since they feed with plankton (a primary producer).

10.) Phytoplankton are the base of the Southern Antarctic Ocean trophic chain. In the nutrient-rich upwelling zone waters, they can reach huge blossoms and are far more common than other forms of zooplankton in this zone.

11.) The productivity of this ecosystem is influenced by the seasonal cycle of the upwelling winds, these peak during the months of December and January, carrying more nutrients and allowing trophic networks to work more efficiently and actively allowing for more productivity.
