1) Which Porcelain crabs, those living in cool temperate regions or those living in
hot tropical regions, appear to be more vulnerable to global warming and why?
A) Species living in cool temperate regions appear to be more vulnerable
because it is harder to adapt to heat than to cold.
B) Species living in cool temperate regions appear to be more vulnerable
because these species require cold temperatures to reproduce.
C) Species living in hot regions appear to be more vulnerable because they
are living at the edge of their thermal tolerance range and likely have limited
ability to adjust their thermal tolerance.
D) Species living in hot regions appear to be less vulnerable because they are
already adapted to hot environments.
