Answer 1

The correct response is: Areas see significant changes in temperature and levels of precipitation.

During an El Niño year, the alteration in the trade winds and the movement of warm water eastward can lead to various climatic changes, including increased rainfall in some areas and droughts in others, along with shifts in temperature patterns.
