List of top Applied Ecology & Evolution Questions on Ecology and Climate Change asked in GATE EY

Many species in mountain ranges are shifting their ranges to higher, cooler elevations in response to warming temperatures because of climate change.

The graph above shows how the midpoint of elevational range in the year 2025 is related to the midpoint of the elevational range in the year 2000 for species in temperate (open circle) and tropical (solid circle) mountain ranges. Each point represents a species, and the dashed line is the 1:1 or the identity line (with intercept = 0 and slope = 1). Which one of the following statements is consistent with the above graph?

The graph below shows how the lower limits of the elevational ranges of bird species on a tropical mountain have changed over 20 years (2000 to 2020) because of climate change. Each point below represents a bird species. Points would cluster on the dashed line if species had the same lower elevational range limits in 2000 and 2020. Given that the mountain summit is at an elevation of 3500 m (solid horizontal line), and assuming that the trend shown by the graph continues over the next 20 years, what would you expect in 2040?
