The document discusses terrestrial ecosystems and how they are defined by climate zones. It describes the frigid, temperate, and torrid climate zones that determine the types of ecosystems like tundra, taiga, deciduous forests, grasslands, deserts, and rainforests found in each zone. Key adaptations of plants and animals are also summarized for different ecosystems, such as epiphytes in rainforests and camouflage in deserts.
