Tropical Rainforest Biome
The tropical rainforest is Earth's most biologically diverse biome. It has four distinct layers - the emergent layer of tall trees, the upper canopy layer where most animals live, the understory layer of shrubs and small trees with constant high humidity, and the dark forest floor that receives less than 1% of sunlight. Despite low-nutrient soils from heavy rainfall and weathering, the rainforest supports a wide variety of adapted plant and animal species through nutrient recycling and specialized structures for gathering light.

Biomee mariammmmmm 2
The taiga biome is located in northern parts of North America and northern Eurasia. It has long, cold winters where temperatures can drop below -7°C and short, mild summers around 21°C. The soil of the taiga is thin, acidic, rocky, and low in nutrients. Plant life includes pine trees, giant sequoias, mosses, and lichens. Animal life includes Amur tigers, snowshoe hares, porcupines, elk, and bobcats, though population densities are generally low due to the harsh climate.

MAJOR BIOMES OF WORLD
1. Biomes are defined as large regions characterized by distinct plant and animal life. The document discusses several major biomes including forests, grasslands, deserts, and aquatic biomes.
2. Each biome has unique abiotic factors like climate and soil that have shaped the adaptations of the plants and animals living there. For example, desert plants have small leaves or none at all to reduce water loss, while aquatic biomes range from freshwater to marine environments.
3. Many biomes are threatened by human activities such as deforestation, pollution, and climate change. Conservation efforts aim to protect biodiversity and restore degraded ecosystems.
Terrestrial biomes
This document describes the major land biomes: deserts, forests, grasslands, tundra, and aquatic. It focuses on describing the different types of deserts, including hot and dry deserts, semiarid deserts, coastal deserts, and cold deserts. For each desert type, it discusses characteristics like temperature, precipitation, soils, plants, and animals found in that biome.

Biomes
This document summarizes the main biomes (regions) of the world, which include polar ice caps, tundra, forests, grasslands, deserts, and aquatic biomes. It provides details on the defining characteristics, climates, vegetation, and animals found in each biome type. Some of the specific biomes mentioned include boreal forests, taiga, temperate deciduous forests, prairies, steppes, savannas, rainforests, wetlands, estuaries, and oceans.
DIFFERENT BIOMES HABITATES
This document defines and describes different types of biomes. It begins by defining a biome as a major community of plants and animals classified by predominant vegetation and adaptations to the environment. It then describes four main classifications of biomes: terrestrial, freshwater, marine, and anthropogenic. For each classification, it provides examples and characteristics of specific biomes within that classification, such as tundra, tropical forest, ocean, estuary, and agricultural biomes.
Physical geography of canada
The document outlines the 8 major physical regions of Canada, describing their key geographic features, climates, vegetation, and environmental concerns. The regions include the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Lowland, Canadian Shield, Interior Plains, Intermountain Region, Arctic Plains, Appalachian Region, Coastal Plains, and Western Cordillera. Each region has unique climates, landscapes, and plant life that have developed over thousands of years due to factors like proximity to bodies of water, latitude, and elevation. Human activities now present environmental challenges for protecting the natural habitats and resources of Canada's diverse regions.
The Biosphere
The document describes several major biomes and their defining characteristics in 3 sentences or less each:
Tropical rain forests have abundant rain, poor soil, and large canopy trees. Savannas are dominated by grasses and scattered trees and are home to many grazing animals. Deserts have sparse rainfall, rapid evaporation, and scattered shrubs and cacti that have adapted to drought and heat.
Ecosystem
The document discusses tundra ecosystems. Tundra regions are found in the Arctic and high elevations, where the climate is cold and windy with low precipitation. They are covered in snow for most of the year. Tundra ecosystems have low biodiversity due to harsh conditions and support small shrubs, mosses, and grasses as well as mammals like caribou, Arctic hares, and birds. Permafrost and a short growing season define tundra climates. Global warming is a threat that is causing tundra regions to shrink.
BIOMES AND THEIR DISTRIBUTION. new 3.pptx
Forests cover approximately one-third of the Earth's surface and are the largest terrestrial biome. They vary in temperature and precipitation depending on their location. Temperate forests have temperatures between -30°C to 30°C and receive evenly distributed precipitation of 75-150 cm annually. Rainforests are hot with high rainfall of 2000-10000 mm per year and have significant biodiversity. Taiga or boreal forests are cold, subarctic forests located between the tundra and temperate zones.
The Biome Permanent Ice
The biome of permanent ice is located in polar land masses, polar ice caps, and high mountain areas. It has a climate with less than 50 cm of annual precipitation mostly as snow, average winter temperatures below -30°C, and average summer temperatures from 3 to 14°C. Physical features include strong winds, lots of sunlight, very small soil, and surfaces that are mainly ice and sometimes mountainous. Plants are limited to dark-colored lichens, moss, and a few flowering plants, while animals include polar bears, arctic foxes, penguins, and other species with adaptations like fat layers and thick fur to retain body heat in the extreme cold.
