Climate change is predicted to have an impact on Earth's biodiversity. What could be a consequence of climate change on marine biodiversity?
A. An increase in the temperature of the ocean may cause bleaching of corals, thus dramatically reducing biodiversity
B. An increase in the temperature of the ocean will cause coastal wetlands to shrink, thus decreasing biodiversity
C. An influx of fresh water as the ice caps melt will increase salinity of the ocean, thus eliminating species sensitive to changes in salinity
D. An increase in atmospheric temperature will cause increased evaporation from the ocean, thus shrinking the amount of viable habitat in the ocean

Most biodiversity indicators show relationships between animals and the system's ecology. However, biodiversity can also be linked to the economics and culture of an area. For instance, in the Arctic waters, the plants and animals are contaminated from the increase in shipping activities. How does this affect the Inuit people and their culture?
A. The contaminated plants and animals contributes toxins into the seal population
B. The dolphin population has increased and the Inuit people have to compete with the dolphins for fish
C. The people welcome the increased shipping activities; therefore, they are not concerned that the flora and fauna have been contaminated
D. As a result of the decline in plants and animals from contamination, there is a loss of whales in the area; this change deprives the people of hunting, a practical need to acquire food
