The future of life: de-extinction, climate, coral and frozen zoos, sentence 3
The planet is also changing: as places warm, many plants and animals move towards the poles or up mountains, like children shifting along a bench into the shade on a hot day, until someone at the very end has nowhere left to go.
Who acts: planet, places, many plants, children · What happens: change, warm, move, shift, leave, go · To what, where: poles, shade
This is a sentence of the lesson «The future of life: de-extinction, climate, coral and frozen zoos» of the biology course of Mova's primary school.
