Models have been created that predict world sea levels will rise if the current global temperature increases continue. if these models are correct, which of the following could be correctly inferred? a. the amount of land area will decrease.  b. fossil fuels will rapidly become depleted. c. alternative energy sources will not meet demand.  d. deforestation continues to cause global warming.

To solve this question, think about which one of these options is a DIRECT effect of sea levels rising.

Choice A: If sea levels rise, they would start to cover up land that's at sea level, areas like beaches or coastal cities for example.

Choice B: Fossil fuels cause global warming. This is about the effects of global warming, not the causes. 

Choice C: Not relevant. It doesn't mention alternative energy at all in this.

Choice D: Again, effects, not causes (see Choice B explanation).

The correct answer is... CHOICE A
