Question

how is alaska in danger because of climate change?
a carl’s village cannot find enough berries.
b the weather is too hot, and that has killed fish.
c the river ice is thin, and fish are dying.
d carl’s village did not prepare enough fish.

Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze each option in the context of climate change impacts on Alaska:

• Option A: A village not finding enough berries is a local food - availability issue, not a direct climate - change - related danger to Alaska as a whole.
• Option B: Climate change causes rising temperatures. If the weather becomes too hot and kills fish, this is a direct impact of climate change (warming) on Alaska's ecosystem (aquatic life), which endangers the region's biodiversity and local livelihoods dependent on fish.
• Option C: Thin river ice is more related to changes in freezing patterns, but the statement that fish are dying due to thin ice is less of a direct climate - change - caused danger compared to the impact of heat on fish. Also, the causal link between thin ice and fish dying is less clear - cut than the direct impact of heat on fish.
• Option D: A village not preparing enough fish is a human - preparedness issue, not a climate - change - related danger to Alaska.

Answer:

B. The weather is too hot, and that has killed fish.
