Deer ticks can carry lyme disesse. reported cases of lyme disease in the united states increased from just over 10,000 in 1995 to almost 30,000 in 2014. which sentence best explains how climate change could increase the number of lyme disease cases? (apex)

There are no options but I will explain how climate change could increase the number of Lyme disease cases below.

Explanation:

Lyme disease is not only an extremely dangerous disease but it is also the most common tick-borne disease in the United States. It occurs when a mammal is bitten by a tick of the species Ixodes scapularis that has been infected by the bacteria Borrelia burgdorferi.

According to research, the activity and survival of ticks highly depend on temperature and humidity. This indicates that an increase in the temperature, which is one of the main consequences of anthropogenic climate change, contributes to a significant increase in the abundance and survival of ticks as they adapt rapidly and survive better in these conditions. In addition, the host availability has been shown to also increase during high temperatures, which is extremely favorable for both of these organisms.
