Biome year 5 is a large and naturally occurring community of plants and animals also known as flora and fauna that occupy a major habitat, and is defined by it's specific soil, and vegetation.
The key year 5 biomes include desert, aquatic, grassland, forest and tundra, with study focusing on how animals adapt to these environments.
A biome is basically a large region of Earth that has a certain climate and certain types of living things.
The biome that covers 70% of the earth is the marine biome.
The marine biome is the largest biome that includes the 5 main oceans, Southern, Arctic, Indian, Atlantic and Pacific oceans, along with coastal areas like the bays and gulfs.
And the marine biome is characterized by saltwater, high biodiversity and a profound influence on the climate of the planet and ecosystems.
The marine biome provides 99 percent of living space on the planet, with most of it being deep sea and the marine biome is also home to a vast majority of the Earth's biodiversity and it includes distinct zones like the euphotic (lighted), disphotic (twilight) and aphotic (dark) zones.
The marine biome is also vital for producing oxygen, regulating climate and providing resources.
The top 7 biomes are the Taiga also known as the Boreal Forest, Tundra, Temperate Deciduous Forest, Temperate Grassland, Desert, Savanna and the Tropical Rainforest.
The tundra biome are cold, treeless plains with permafrost that are located in high latitudes or altitudes.
The taiga or boreal forest is cold and contains coniferous forests with long winters and is dominated by fir and spruce trees.
The temperate deciduous forest biome is characterized by having 4 seasons and trees that lose their leaves in the winter.
Temperate grassland biomes are dominated by grasses and feature fertile soil, cold winters and hot summers.
Desert biomes are arid, dry regions with extreme temperature fluctuations and specialized flora/fauna.
Savanna biomes are tropical grasslands with scattered trees and distinct wet and dry seasons.
And tropical rainforests are highly diverse, warm and wet and feature dense canopies.
A biome is a large geographical area that is defined by it's similar climate, animals and plants and acts as a major ecological community, like a tundra, desert or forest, where specific life forms thrive due to shared environmental conditions like rainfall and temperature.
Biomes are basically areas of the planet with a similar climate and landscape, where similar animals and plants live.
Some of the world's main biomes include tundra, woodland, grassland, savannah, desert and rainforest and each biome has characteristics that make it unique, like for example Alaska is a type of tundra.
The 10 biomes are Tropical Rainforest, Desert, Savanna, Temperate Grassland, Temperate Deciduous Forest, Northwestern Coniferous Forest, Boreal Forest (Taiga), Tundra, Mediterranean/Chaparral, and Aquatic (Marine/Freshwater).
The Tundra is the coldest biome that is characterized by permafrost, low shrubs and mosses.
The Taiga or boreal forest is the largest land biome that has cold and snowy winters and cone bearing evergreen trees.
Northwest Coniferous Forest is a biome that has mild temperatures with high precipitation and features tall conifers like redwood.
Temperate Forest or deciduous biomes feature 4 distinct seasons, with trees that lose their leaves in winter.
Temperate Woodland and Shrubland biomes have hot and dry summers and cool, moist winters with fire adapted plants.
Temperate Grassland biomes are open, treeless areas that are dominated by grass, with hot summers and cold winters.
Desert biomes are extremely dry, with either hot or cold temperatures.
Tropical Savanna biomes are warm year round with scattered trees, and a long dry season that supports large herbivores.
Tropical dry forest biomes are characterized by a long dry season that is followed by heavy rainfall, with trees that are adapted to dry conditions.
And Tropical rainforest biomes are hot, humid and rainy year round with the highest biodiversity.
A biome is a large geographical region that is classified by it's distinct climate which includes precipitation and temperature, soil types and the specific plants (flora) as well as animals (fauna) which have adapted to that environment.
Biomes are the world's major communities that are classified into aquatic "water" and terrestrial "land" biomes.
The 7 major types of biomes are Savanna, Desert, Grassland, Tropical Rainforest, Temperate Deciduous Forest, Taiga or Coniferous Forest and the Tundra.
These 7 major types of biomes are large geographic areas that are classified by their climate which is temperature and precipitation, soil composition and dominant flora and fauna which forms distinct ecosystems that are adapted to specific environments.
The six land biomes are Deserts, Grasslands, Tropical Rainforests, Deciduous Forests, Taiga or Boreal Forest and Tundra.
These six land biomes are land based communities that are characterized by distinct biodiversity and are adapted to specific environmental conditions like arid, cold or high moisture, tropical environments.
The tundra is the coldest and treeless biome with permafrost, low shrubs and lichens.
Taiga or the boreal forest has cold and snowy winters with coniferous, needle leaf trees or pines and firs.
Temperate Deciduous Forests have a moderate climate with 4 seasons that are characterized by trees which lose their leaves in the winter.
Tropical rainforests have hot, humid and wet year round weather and boast the highest biodiversity.
Grasslands are dominated by grasses instead of shrubs and trees, which include the highest biodiversity.
And the desert are extremely dry regions which can be hot or cold with very little rainfall, which feature specialized, drought resistant plants.
The 5 major biomes on earth are Aquatic (marine/freshwater biomes), desert, forest, grassland and Tundra.
The 7 major biomes are the Tundra, Shrubland, Rainforest, Grassland, Desert, Temperate Deciduous Forest and Coniferous Forests.
And the 14 biomes include specific distinctions like Tropical/Subtropical Moist broadleaf forests, Mediterranean Forests, Woodlands, Scrub and Montane Grasslands.
The major biomes include the tundra, boreal forest (taiga), temperate coniferous forest, temperate broadleaf/deciduous forest, tropical/subtropical forest, grassland (savanna and temperate), shrubland, desert, and Mediterranean/chaparral.
Biomes are massive, distinct ecological areas defined by their climate, soil, flora, and fauna, classified into five major types: Aquatic, Grassland, Forest, Desert, and Tundra.
These are ecosystems that are shaped by precipitation and temperature and range from the equator to the poles.
The tundra are extremely cold, dry and treeless arctic or alpine regions.
The boreal forest/Taiga are cold forests in subarctic regions and are dominated by coniferous trees.
Temperate Coniferous Forests are forests that have mild climates and high precipitation, and is often dominated by needle leaf trees.
Temperate Broadleaf and Mixed Forest are regions with 4 distinct seasons that feature trees that lose leaves in winter.
Tropical and Subtropical Moist Broadleaf Forests are hot, humid rainforests with high biodiversity.
