Which of these is an example of how the ocean plays an important role in climate change?

the warm gulf stream maintain moderate temperature in coastal regions in southern florida.

aquatic animals produce carbon dioxide during respiration which causes warming of ocean waters.

aquatic plants release oxygen during photosynthesis which keep the climate cool in coastal florida.

during day time water vapor escapes from the ocean’s surface and reduces the effect of warming due to greenhouse gases.

The correct answer is- The warm Gulf Stream helps maintain moderate temperature in coastal regions in southern Florida.

Gulf Stream is known as one of the strongest ocean currents in world, which is driven by differences in the density of water and patterns of surface wind.

Ocean currents play a significant role in climate change.

For instance, Gulf Stream brings warm water, which produces heating effect in the overlying air. Without the Gulf Stream, coastal regions in southern Florida would be colder ( primarily due to the cold winds from Arctic region) than they are.

explanation:

answer: decrease

a limiting factor is the one which decrease the abundance, distribution and causes extinction of the population of species in a ecosystem. here, predators including hawks, owls and snakes are the limiting factor for the population of mexican free tailed bat.   although bats are nocturnal animals as they forge for food at night these predators also may remain active during night which can decrease the population of the mexican free-tailed bats. also, these bats eat only one type of insects that are moths. the food can also be a limiting factor as all 400 members are dependent upon same type of food needs that are moths. the decrease in the moth population can cause decrease in population size of the mexican free-tailed bats.

therefore, the scenarios will most likely to decrease the population size of the mexican free-tailed bats.
