Which of the following investigations would shed the most light on the future distribution of organisms in temperate regions that are faced with climate change?

remove, to the mineral soil, all of the organisms from an experimental plot, and monitor the colonization of the area over time in terms of both species diversity and abundance. quantify the impact of man's activities on present-day populations of threatened and endangered species to assess the rate of extirpation and extinction. compare and contrast the flora and fauna of warm/cold/dry/wet climates to shed light on how they evolved to be suited to their present-day environment. look at the climatic changes that occurred since the last ice age and how species redistributed as glaciers melted, then make predictions on future distribution in species based on past trends.

Explanation:

Organisms in temperate regions are adapted to the normal temperate climate.

As different factors cause climate change in the temperate climate, living organisms shall be faced by the problem of adapting to the new changes, moving to friendlier areas or facing extinction.

The above experiment would be appropriate since the living organisms in the ice age were faced with the same problem of climate change and adapting to the new climate, this shaped their current distribution.

glacial erosion, the picking up and movement of earth beneath a glacier, is also referred to as plucking. erosion and transportation of individual pieces of bedrock, especially large "joint block occur as a result of this glacial erosion. plucking is type of erosion in which rocks become frozen into the bottom and sides of the glacier.as the glacier moves downhill it 'plucks' the rocks frozen into the glacier from the ground.

phaneritic textures in which phaner means visible so phaneritic textures are standard of impertinent volcanic rocks. these rocks crystallized gradually under the surface of earth. when the magma cools deliberately then the ores have chance to develop and produce long crystals.
