A changing climate has strong implications for biodiversity. Studies of fossil and pollen distribution show that species are very sensitive to climate changes. When the climate changes, species often die out in their present areas and colonize new areas. Therefore, as the climate changes in the future, there will be disruption of natural communities and extinction of populations and species.

Based on the information above, which of these would most likely be affected by a global warming?

A) Rattlesnakes in the desert.

B) Polar bears living on the sea ice.

C) Earthworms burrowing in the ground.

D) Spider monkeys in the tropical rain forests.
