Battle for the Biosphere

What is a biome? A biome is a plant and animal community covering a large area of the Earth’s surface The biosphere is the global sum of all the world’s biomes, including the hydrosphere, atmosphere and lithosphere

Keywords Match the following keywords to the correct definitions on page 2 of your booklets Ecosystem Sustainability Altitude Latitude Biodiversity

The global distribution of biomes The earth is home to many different biomes. These are distributed according to many different factors. Each biome is distinguished from the others by its climate, landscape and biodiversity.  Using page 42 of the purple textbooks, complete the biome map in your booklets

Exam question Describe the global distribution of deserts (2 marks)
