Questions 1 and 3 are based on this passage
Historically, more cold-adapted antelope species originating in Eurasia have migrated into Africa, where the climate is generally warmer, than have warm-adapted African species into Eurasia. A likely explanation for this involves the fact that intercontinental migrations require both a land bridge connecting the two continents and the suitable habitat both on and across that land bridge. During periods of climatic cooling, such as the various ice ages, the land bridge is open for a long time (because sea level remains low) and is usable by cold-adapt species because cool habitats then extend across it. Thus during cooling most migrants would be expected to travel toward Africa, which is near the equator, since this is the direction dictated by habitat changes on a cooling Earth. In contrast, when the Earth is warm, the land bridge is reduced or gone because sea level is relatively high then. Only during the short lag between onset of global temperature change and sea level response can warm-adapted species migrate from the equator toward higher latitudes.
According to the passage, which of the following best accounts for the apparent bias in antelope-migration direction?
Warm-adapted antelope species are rarely able to tolerate cool habitats, whereas cold- adapted antelope species usually can tolerate warm habitats.
During global warming periods, land bridges, when present, lack habitats suitable for sustaining warm-adapted antelope species.
Under most climatic conditions, Africa offers a larger number of suitable antelope habitats than does Eurasia.
Many more species of antelope have originated in Eurasia than have originated in Africa.
Land bridges are more likely to exist when climate change favors migration to warmer climates than when climate changes favors migration to cooler climates.
