How do fjords contribute to local biodiversity?

• Fjords have no impact on local ecosystems or species diversity.

• Fjords are primarily freshwater bodies that limit marine life.

• Fjords contribute to local biodiversity by providing unique habitats that support diverse marine life and nutrient-rich ecosystems.

• Fjords are formed by volcanic activity, reducing biodiversity.

What impact does tourism have on the fjord ecosystems?

• Tourism promotes the growth of native species in fjord ecosystems.

• Tourism enhances biodiversity in fjord ecosystems.

• Tourism has no effect on fjord ecosystems.

• Tourism negatively impacts fjord ecosystems through pollution, habitat degradation, and the introduction of invasive species.

Identify one endangered species found in Norway.

• Giant panda

• Bald eagle

• African elephant

• Saimaa ringed seal

How does climate change affect wildlife in Norwegian fells?

• Climate change only impacts plant life, not wildlife in Norwegian fells.

• Climate change disrupts habitats, food sources, and migration patterns of wildlife in Norwegian fells.

• Wildlife in Norwegian fells remains unaffected by climate change.

• Climate change increases food availability for wildlife in Norwegian fells.

What type of wildlife is commonly found in Norwegian fjords?

• Kangaroos

• Seals, porpoises, fish, and seabirds.

• Lions

• Elephants

Describe the ecological role of kelp forests in fjords.

• Kelp forests serve as vital habitats, support biodiversity, stabilize the seafloor, and enhance nutrient cycling and carbon sequestration in fjords.

• Kelp forests have no significant impact on local fish populations.

• Kelp forests are mainly composed of coral species.

• Kelp forests primarily serve as a food source for marine mammals.

What are the primary threats to the wildlife in Norwegian fells?

• Natural disasters like earthquakes

• Climate change, habitat loss, pollution, and invasive species.

• Increased tourism activities

• Overpopulation of native species
