Presentation on theme: "A pond is a small expanse of fresh water that doesn’t flow like"— Presentation transcript:

1 A pond is a small expanse of fresh water that doesn’t flow like
a river or a stream and isn’t salty like the sea. SAMPLE SLIDE Because the water is mostly still, the water has less oxygen than the flowing water of rivers and streams. It’s also shallower and warmer than a river because there are fewer trees shading the water. Random Slides From This PowerPoint Show

2 Unlike rivers and streams which have flowing water, the water in ponds and lakes can freeze
over in winter. SAMPLE SLIDE Random Slides From This PowerPoint Show

3 Like a stream or river, there are different areas in a pond habitat.
Some things live in the open water, others float on the surface, some prefer the shallows and others live at the muddy edges of the pond. SAMPLE SLIDE Random Slides From This PowerPoint Show

4 A pond is home to many water plants and plants that grow on the banks of the pond - they are all adapted to growing in wet soil. SAMPLE SLIDE Random Slides From This PowerPoint Show They provide oxygen, food and shelter for animals that live there.
