Question

How are populations of blue-winged warblers most likely to be affected by the earlier arrival of spring? A. Populations will increase since warmer temperatures are generally beneficial to survival. B. Populations will go extinct since the warblers will stop migrating to breeding grounds. C. Populations will be unaffected since most species can quickly adapt to effects of climate change. D. Populations will decline since individuals will be less likely to successfully reproduce.

Answer 1

Answer:

A.

Explanation:

Due to the early arrival of spring, the populations will increase since warmer temperatures are generally beneficial to survival. Blue-winged warblers tend to migrate south when winter arrives in order to survive and come back when spring begins to arrive once again. Since spring is arriving early it allows the population of warblers to have more time to take advantage of, this would allow them to reproduce more often and thrive on the excess amount of resources that they can take advantage of. All of these factors drastically increase their survivability.
