Show transcript
Predictions about effects of factors such as temperature and availability of water and CO2 on rate of photosynthesis. Photosynthesis in producers creates the biomass for food chains, which all consumers (including humans) depend on. Climate change and global warming affect the temperature and the availability of water. Rising temperatures, droughts and floods will reduce the yields of crop plants that feed farm animals and humans. Different regions of the world and the people living there will be affected in different ways.
