The table below shows the rate at which four different species can adapt to changes in temperature. Rate of Adaptation Species Characteristics A 1 °C per million years B 1 °C per ten thousand years C 2 °C per million years D 2 °C per ten thousand years Which species is most likely to become extinct due to global warming?

snowflake0531:

The rate of adaptation... For example, A would mean that a certain species takes one million years to adapt to one degree of a change in temperature.

snowflake0531:

So, for each one, we could write it as, 1 degree/1 million years 1 degree/10 thousand years 2 degrees/1 million years 2 degrees/10 thousand years Agreed?

snowflake0531:

Hmm... you're new.

snowflake0531:

You do know that you can reply?

LMAOxPLSSS:

oh

LMAOxPLSSS:

sorry

LMAOxPLSSS:

also, yes agreed.

snowflake0531:

Lol. Anyways We want to know, that the change in one degree, takes the most time. So, we can convert C and D to one degree per half a million years, and one degree per five thousand years. So, now we have one degree/1 million years /10 thousand years / 1/2 a million years / five thousand years. Which one is the most amount of time?

LMAOxPLSSS:

im 12 and have no clue but i think 1/2 million

LMAOxPLSSS:

bc thats 500,000 right

snowflake0531:

Yes- lol.

LMAOxPLSSS:

im sorry im an idiot :)

LMAOxPLSSS:

so c?

snowflake0531:

No, lol. C is half a million years

LMAOxPLSSS:

so which is it .-.

snowflake0531:

\sigh The first haha.

LMAOxPLSSS:

ohhhh thanks qwq'

snowflake0531:

Yw~
