1. The correct word is "rises". We use the word "rises" when we talk about the sun coming up in the morning. For example, we say "The sun rises in the east" because the sun appears to move up from the eastern horizon.

2. The correct word is "warned". When someone tells us about possible danger or harm, they are warning us. In this case, he is letting us know about the extreme weather conditions so that we can be careful and take necessary precautions.

3. The correct word is "fall". When temperatures decrease, we use the word "fall". So, we say "Temperatures fall to -10°C here in the winter" because the temperatures go down to -10°C during the winter season.

4. The correct word is "adapt". Animals have the ability to change or adjust to their environment in order to survive. So, we say "Animals can adapt to their environment to survive".

5. The correct word is "threatened". When we say a species is "threatened", it means that they are in danger of becoming extinct. So, we should protect threatened species because if we do not, they may die out completely.

It is important to use dictionaries to check the definitions and meanings of words to ensure we are using the most appropriate word in a given context.
