Question

the rapid increase in algae populations due to warming water is called:
a. fishery rise
b. ice bloom
c. ocean runoff
d. algal blooms

what is a primary cause of climate refugees?
a. algal blooms
b. rising sea levels
c. permafrost formation
d. soil erosion

Explanation:

First Question (Algae Population Increase)

• Option a: "Fishery rise" relates to fisheries, not algae population increase.
• Option b: "Ice bloom" is incorrect; ice and algae blooms are unrelated.
• Option c: "Ocean runoff" is water flow, not algae growth.
• Option d: "Algal blooms" is the term for rapid algae population growth, often due to warming water (eutrophication, temperature changes).

• Option a: Algal blooms affect water ecosystems, not climate refugee causes.
• Option b: Rising sea levels (from climate change) displace people, making them climate refugees.
• Option c: Permafrost formation is a cold-region process, not a refugee cause.
• Option d: Soil erosion is a land issue, less direct for climate refugees than sea - level rise.

Answer:

d. Algal blooms
