The same goes for tigers, sea lions, elephants. As the globe heats up and natural environments change, all big creatures are potentially【B2】______.

What’s more, insects are arguably more important than large mammals, 【B5】______speaking. While several thousand polar bears wander the arctic, untold billions of insects live in virtually everywhere on Earth. And they’re【B6】______in every ecosystem. For example, many of the world’s crops and other plants rely on insects for pollination(授粉). In forests, insects help break down dead trees and prepare the soil for new growth. And there are the animals, like birds, that【B7】______ insects.
So how exactly will global warming affect insects? We don’t really know. Some may go extinct. Others could migrate to cooler regions and【B8】______ native insect species there. And this could have all sorts of important implications for crops and entire ecosystems.
