Answer

Brief Explanations:

Fossils can give clues about past climates. For example, certain types of plant fossils (like palm tree fossils in areas that are now cold) can suggest what the temperature was like in the past. The number of species that existed (while related to biodiversity) doesn't directly tell about climate change. The movement of continents (plate tectonics) is a geological process not directly read from fossils for climate change evidence. The cause of mass extinctions (like asteroid impacts etc.) is a different study area than climate change from fossils.

Answer:

temperatures
