Question 12 • Fall 24 GSE Physical Science B IC

Which of the following are consequences of global warming? Check all that apply.

Answer
A
increased seawater salinity
B
increased melting ice
C
increased sea level
D
decreased ocean water temperature
E
increased number of species
F
increased heat-related deaths
G
decreased growing season

Explanation

Global warming raises temperatures, which melts land ice and contributes to rising sea levels; warmer conditions also increase the risk of heat-related deaths. Increased melting ice adds freshwater to the ocean, so it does not generally cause seawater salinity to increase. Warming also does not mean fewer species or a shorter growing season overall, though some species and regions may be harmed.
