Which of the following is an example of how climate change has led to loss of biodiversity? Select one:

A Lizard species are moving to higher elevations to seek cooler temperatures.

B Rising temperatures allow Arctic mosquitos to grow faster and emerge earlier.

C Populations of octopus, squid, and other cephalopods are increasing due to their adaptability to warmer ocean temperatures.

D Rising sea temperatures have led to a decline in phytoplankton populations.

D. Since it is the only answer that talks about the loss of a species rather than migration, adaptability, or growth patterns

1. true.2. true.3. true.4. false.5. true.the concept of darwin's theory of evolution involves the idea that there are limited resources in a given living environment and that the organisms which live within have variations in their genetic make up due to random mating. the ones with beneficial genetic variations can express certain traits which give them an upper hand in surviving and reproducing in the said environment compared to ones who may have a more disadvantageous variation in traits. over time, the organisms with an upper hand will survive and reproduce more frequently and pass on their beneficial genes while the others die. the result is evolution, where we observe (usually, but not always) eventually, phenotypic distinct changes.
