Tons of tigers ate delicious grass in the desert but got thirsty so went to the rainforest

Desert

Permafrost Canopy Biome Plankton Precipitation Climate Biodiversity Conifer tree Deciduous tree

Permanently frozen soil usually found in the tundra

The top layer of trees in the rainforest• Makes a ceiling• Creates shade for the bottom• Competition for light• Home to many animals

A large area of similar ecosystems with similar animals and climate.

Small microscopic organisms that are the base of the aquatic food chain. • Some are producers and do photosynthesis• Some are tiny animals.

Water that falls to the ground either in the form of rain or snow.

The average weather for an area. Example deserts are USUALLY hot and dry. • One cold day does not change desert

climate

Having a large variety of animals

A Tree with needles and cones Specialized for cold climates.

A tree that loses leaves in the winter. Main tree in a deciduous forest

Location Temperature Rainfall Plants/Adaptation Animals/Adaptations Other names Special Features

Location ---Very far north Temperature-----Cold Rainfall--- very little. Plants/Adaptation----short plants,

moss Animals/Adaptations---- fur,

camouflage, migrate. Elk foxes insects Other names-- Special Features-- Permafrost

Location Temperature Rainfall Plants/Adaptation Animals/Adaptations Other names Special Features

Location---canada and russia/south of tundra Temperature Cold Rainfall…Average Plants/Adaptation.. Coniferous trees/Needles Animals/Adaptations…Fur, Elk ,owls ,bears Other names, Coniferous Boreal Special Features Precipitation is mostly snow.

Tigers are carnivorous- To remember coniferous

Location Temperature Rainfall Plants/Adaptation Animals/Adaptations Other names Special Features

Location, Georgia, east u.s europe Temperature. Average, Seasonal Rainfall Average to a log Plants/Adaptation Leaves fall off Animals/Adaptations Hibernate,

store food, Bears, birds, amphibians Other names Special Features 4 seasons

Location Temperature Rainfall Plants/Adaptation Animals/Adaptations Other names Special Features

Location Between a desert and a forest, U.S and africa

Temperature Mostly Hot, Sometimes cool Rainfall Very little Plants/Adaptation mostly grass Animals/Adaptations Big herbivores,

graze on grass, Big carnivores Other names Savanna, Prairie Special Features largest animals on land.

Grasslands in africa.

Grassland in u.s

Location Temperature Rainfall Plants/Adaptation Animals/Adaptations Other names Special Features

Location Middle of continent Temperature Hot Rainfall Very Low Plants/Adaptation Cacti, Store

water, needles, roots spread out Animals/Adaptations Sleep during

day, Store water, Lots of reptiles Other names, Special Features hot during day but

can get cold at night.

Location Temperature Rainfall Plants/Adaptation Animals/Adaptations Other names Special Features

Location Temperature Always hot Rainfall always rainy Plants/Adaptation Vines, Tall trees Animals/Adaptations, Huge

variety Other names Special Features Most biodiversity

anywhere, Canopy

Mountains Can have several biomes Biome changes as you go up

mountain

Way north, Very little life

Where ocean and freshwater meet. Very rich ecosystem

Rivers Lakes streams Depend on algae and aquatic

plants. Lots of variety

Ocean, Coral Reefs Deap sea Coastal

Has plankton as producers, big carnivores like whales and sharks.
