Which of the following is a consequence of rising sea levels caused by climate change?
easy Q3 of 15
Step-by-Step Solution
Step 1: Understand effects of rising sea levels
Rising sea levels result from melting ice and thermal expansion due to global warming.Step 2: Analyze consequences
Loss of coastal habitats occurs as seawater inundates low-lying areas. Increased agricultural productivity and desert expansion are unrelated to sea level rise. Hurricanes tend to increase, not reduce.Final Answer:
Loss of coastal habitats → Option BQuick Check:
Rising sea levels cause = Loss of coastal habitats ✅
Quick Trick: Link sea level rise directly to coastal habitat loss.
Common Mistakes:
- Confusing desert expansion or hurricane frequency with sea level rise effects.
