1. what is el niño? 2. what is la niña? 3. how do el niño and la niña differ? 4. based on the wintertime la niña weather map, what do you think florida's temperature and precipitation would be like during a winter el niño event? 5. choose one region on the world map. how does the climate there differ during el niño and la niña? 6. select one of the effects from the list. explain how the el niño event affected weather, food production, water supply, or human health. what is a possible solution to reduce the damaging effects?

1.The El Nino phenomenon, which occurs every three to five years, is caused by warmer water in the eastern Pacific Ocean

2.La Nina is characterized by unusually cold ocean temperatures in the Equatorial Pacific

3. Basically El Nino is when the climate in one area is warm, whereas La Nina is when the climate in one area is cold

4.El Nino would warm up Florida's temperature in the winter. Since its already a bit warm in the winter it would be kind of like summer, in a way.

5. The climate would be warm, as I said, but it would be cold if it where La Nina

6. El Nino would cause lots of droughts most likely and mess up food production. itcould also dry up some of the water too depending where you are at. Also in some cases hot weather can cause lots of pollen and some people are allergic to pollen and it just wouldn't be good at all.

There really isn't a full explanation to how it can be stopped because you can't control the weather. But what we could do is reduce the amount of gas and other chemicals we let into the air like factories for example.

I hope this helped! this took a while to make lol

As explained below.

Explanation:

1. The El Nino is represented by the ENSO southern oscillation system that develops around the Pacific ocean and relates to a large-scale ocean-atmosphere climate interaction.

2. As opposed to it is the La Nina that is a cold and wet condition in North America.

3. In spanish La nina refers to a little girl and El Nino to a little boy. La Nina represents below-average sea surface temperatures across the east-central Equatorial Pacific. During Nina, the temperatures are warmer in the southwest and cooler in north east.

4. El Nino effects on the southeast bring average rainfall to Florida during all-Winter-Spring thus has a higher risk of flooding and thus increases a storm in the southeastern states.

5. The climate of tropics is like for Philippians and Asian countries are affected by the presence of strong southern oscillation that brings floods and rains to the countries.

6. Weather phenomena like El Nino have caused huge damage to property and life as they lead to the floods and drought and drier conditions in certain countries and hence affect the supply of food and water badly, hence it's advisable to move out of the areas as quick as possible.

1) gene flow

- it is described as the transfer of genes from one population to another population so that frequency of gene is increased.

-a zebra migrates to join a different herd of zebras.

2) natural selection

- a mechanism of evolutionary change in which individuals with advantageous traits survive and reproduce whereas the others ( those that can not adapt) eliminate from the population.

-competition for sunlight leads to taller trees.

3) mutation

- permanent change in the nucleotide sequence of dna ( genetic material) that could have harmful or useful consequences.

-the dna of a snake changes to make its venom stronger.

4) genetic drift - it is a random phenomenon ( that occurs by chance such as fire) that results in change in the gene frequency in a small population.

-a grassfire randomly sweeps through a population of buffalo and kills most of the animals.

Experiments in environmental toxicology can sometimes be manipulative experiments in which the researcher actively chooses and manipulates the independent variable. in hunt's study, for example, dosages of bpa were manipulated and the effects were measured. in manipulative studies, the researcher controls all the other variables in the experiment, so any health effects observed in the test subjects can be attributed to differences in the independent variable. in other cases, researchers use natural experiments in which the dependent variable (typically a measure of organism health) is measured under differing contexts that are not manipulated. say, for example, that an accidental chemical spill contaminates five ponds. to determine the possible effects of the toxic chemical on frogs, a researcher could compare the hatching rate of frog eggs laid in those five ponds to the hatching rate of eggs laid in five uncontaminated ponds nearby. this would be an example of a natural experiment because concentrations of the toxic chemical in the ponds were not controlled by the experimenter, but rather resulted from the chemical spill. drag type of experiment on the left to the example of experiment on the right. blood concentrations of bpa in college students are compared to their recent manipulative consumption of canned food items 2. the feeding behavior of fish in streams that receive acidic runoff from strip mines is compared to the feeding behavior of fish in unaffected streams. the deformity rate in baby birds from nests in pesticide-sprayed fields is compared to the deformity rate in birds from nests in unsprayed fields 4 tumor development is compared in mice exposed to five dosages of a known carcinogen in the laboratory foraging activity levels are compared in tadpoles exposed to four concentrations of toxic metals in the laboratory. growth of corn plants is compared in field plots sprayed with three different dosage: s of weed killer 7 bpa concentrations in the urine of people with diabetes are compared to bpa concentrations in the urine of people without diabetes - natural; manipulative
