Tundra in the winter Tundra in the Summer

Coniferous Forest- Yosemite National Park. Coniferous forest. Trees like Evergreens, Spruces, and Firs grow in the forest.

Mixed Forest called Mixedwood Plains in Toronto, Canada. Trees like pine, cedar, birches, elms, maple, oak grow in this forest.

Deciduous Forest in northern Michigan- broadleaf trees such as oak, maple, beech, hickory and chestnut grow in this forest.

Temperate Grassland also known as prairie.

Chapparal near San Luis Obispo, California.

Desert Scrub- Southeast Arizona

Desert- Gobi Desert

Tropical Grassland- The Savanna in Africa (Those are wild dogs in the picture.)

Broadleaf Evergreen Forest- The eastern coast of Australia.
