-a species that is a habitat generalist and lives at low elevations
-a species that is a habitat specialist and lives at the highest elevations
-a species that is a habitat specialist and lives at low elevations
-a species that is a habitat generalist and lives at middle elevations

The interaction between the biotic and the abiotic components of an environment is called an ecosystem.

The correct option of the following is B.

The arrangement of the living material and the non-living material altogether is called an ecosystem, the abiotic and non-living materials are wind, water, gases, and etc.

The earth the different levels depending on the longitude and the latitude. Climate change is due to the increase in the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere.

The availability of the gases is very less in the highest elevation due to an increase in pressure. Therefore, climate change due to increases in Co2 will impact the highest elevation location.

Hence, the correct option is B that is - a species that is a habitat specialist and lives at the highest elevations.

A species that is habitat specialist and lives at the highest elevation.

Explanation:

An ecosystem consist of plants, animals as well as micro-organisms but due to climate change the plants as well as animals are in danger . The case that has been provided in the question where due to climate change the temperature rises as a result the species living at the highest elevation are in problem .

Due to rise in temperature the snow is melting and the sea water level is rising. The animals and plants adapt themselves according to the climate where they are residing but suddenly if climatic change take place they will be unable to survive.

The animals which are mostly affected due to climatic change are snow leopard, polar bear, giant panda.

Answer from: Quest

the answer that best describes the relative refractory period in the neuron is the resting membrane potential is restored, but concentrations of sodium and potassium are not restored to their original state.

the refractory period is the time during which another stimulus given to the neuron will not lead to a second potential. thus, because na+ channels are inactivated during this time, additional depolarizing stimuli do not lead to new action potentials.

The collared lizard is a species found in the desert southwest. male collared lizards show considerable color variation, ranging from brightly colored to a very dull pattern. your goal is to determine the function, if any, of male color patterns in collared lizards, using the scientific method. your tentative explanation is that male color plays a role in attracting females for mating purposes. you predict that females will preferentially choose brightly colored males over dull-colored ones. to test this prediction, you observed the interactions of female collared lizards with their male counterparts. you selected males that were the same age and size, and that differed only in their coloration pattern. you placed equal numbers of the two types of male lizards, bright and dull, in aquariums, along with one female lizard per aquarium. out of 350 aquariums observed, the female chose to mate with the brightly colored male 277 times, and the dull-colored male 70 times. in 3 instances, the females did not mate with either type. create a bar graph of your data, plotting the type of male (dull or brightly colored) on the x-axis. on the y-axis, plot the frequency with which each type of male was chosen by females. using this graph, answer the following question(s). is it reasonable to conclude (i.e., is it supported by the data) that female collared lizards prefer more brightly colored male lizards over dull-colored males?
