Why?John Grady, an ecologist, and his team considered the possibilitywarm-blooded animals need a lot to fuel their metabolism(新陈代谢). Perhaps colder waters are just ri

13、cher in small fish? But they found that at higher, colder places, there isnt actually much more food around.

Some groups of whales have changed the timing of their migrations; others are hunting in deeper, colder waters.

19、 These changes might make sea mammals more adaptable to changing climates. Maybe they just need to find the places where fish remain slow, stupid and cold.”1、Why are there more types of warm-blooded predators near the poles?ABecause there is more food.BBecause there are fewer enemies.CBecause they a
