What biome do these climate graphs represent?

Answer: Rainforest

Answer: Coniferous Forest

Answer: Deciduous Forest

Answer: Tundra

What is this? community a group of plants and animals living and interacting with one another in a specific region under relatively similar environmental conditions

Define biosphere The part of the earth and its atmosphere in which living organisms exist or that is capable of supporting life.

Finish these sentences: 1.A diagram that shows how the energy flows from one organism to another is called a trophic pyramid. 2. Any relationships where two species live closely together is called symbiosis. 3. a relationship between two species in which one organism benefits, and the other is unaffected is called commensalism. 4. A relationship between two species in which both organisms benefit is called mutualism.

Give one example of each: 1. Mutualism: Stomach bacteria and humans 2. Commensalism: Remoras and sharks 3. Predation: Hyenas and lions

Name These Biomes! 1.___________ is found on the coastline regions, and are characterized by dense shrubs and grasses. The climate is hot and dry in the summer and rainy in the winter, with low precipitation (overall). This is where wine country is located in California. 2.__________ are open, grassy regions with very few trees. There’s not much rains so the climate is mostly dry. Inhabitants include lions, elephants, zebras, and antelopes. 3.__________ have high levels of rainfall and humidity. Trees, plants and shrubs grow in the spring and summer seasons, then become dormant in the winter. Wolves, birds, squirrels and foxes are examples of animals that live here.

Name These Biomes! 1.Chaparral is found on the coastline regions, and are characterized by dense shrubs and grasses. The climate is hot and dry in the summer and rainy in the winter, with low precipitation (overall). This is where wine country is located in California. 2.Savannas are open, grassy regions with very few trees. There’s not much rains so the climate is mostly dry. Inhabitants include lions, elephants, zebras, and antelopes. 3.Temperate deciduous forests have high levels of rainfall and humidity. Trees, plants and shrubs grow in the spring and summer seasons, then become dormant in the winter. Wolves, birds, squirrels and foxes are examples of animals that live here.
