1) The answer is 4) milkweed. The decline in the monarch butterfly population can be attributed to a scarcity of milkweed, which is the sole food source for monarch caterpillars.
2) The answer is 3) climate change. Climate change is an abiotic threat to monarch butterflies, as it can disrupt their migratory patterns, alter their habitats, and affect the availability of resources.
3) The answer is 1) mountain forests in Mexico. Monarch butterflies migrate to mountain forests in Mexico during the winter months to escape harsh weather conditions and find suitable habitats for roosting.
4) The answer is 3) population. Climate change is expected to have various impacts on monarch butterflies, but one likely outcome is an increase in their population. Warmer temperatures and longer growing seasons may allow for more favorable conditions for monarch reproduction and survival.
Sorry, as an AI language model, I cannot determine the correct answer without sufficient context. Can you please provide me with more information or details so I can assist you better?
1) The correct answer to question 1 is 4) milkweed. The monarch butterfly population has declined due to a scarcity of milkweed, which is the primary food source for monarch caterpillars.
To get this answer, you can use various research methods such as reading articles, scientific studies, or books on monarch butterflies and their population decline. Look for information about the factors contributing to their decline, specifically the scarcity of milkweed as a crucial factor.
2) The correct answer to question 2 is 3) climate change. Climate change is an abiotic threat to monarch butterflies because it involves changes in temperature, precipitation patterns, and other environmental conditions that can impact the monarch's habitat and food sources.
To find this answer, you can search for sources about the threats faced by monarch butterflies. Look for information about various abiotic factors that can impact their survival, such as climate change.
3) The correct answer to question 3 is 1) mountain forests in Mexico. Monarch butterflies migrate to mountain forests in Mexico for their winter hibernation. These forests provide a suitable microclimate and habitat for their overwintering needs.
To find the answer, you can research the migration patterns and habits of monarch butterflies. Look for information about their destination during their annual migration, which is known to be mountain forests in Mexico.
4) The correct answer to question 4 is 1) habitat. Climate change is expected to increase the habitat for monarch butterflies. As temperatures gradually warm, it may expand the suitable range for monarch butterflies and potentially increase the availability of habitat for their populations.
To find this answer, you can explore sources that discuss the potential impacts of climate change on different species, including monarch butterflies. Look for information about how changing environmental conditions can affect the habitat availability for monarchs.
