2. Definition--> The natural environment in which organisms live. Provides protection Provides food Provides shelter

3. 6 Main types of habitats  Grassland/Savanna  Temperate Forests  Tropical Rainforests  Deserts  Polar Ice  Tide pool

4. Areas where vegetation is dominated by grasses and other plants. Occur naturally on all continents except Antarctica Woody plant, bushes, trees Does not provide good hiding because of lack of trees and wide range of visible land

5. Broadleaf forests that occur in the mid- latitudes in areas of high rainfall High rainfall (min. 2-3 m/year) Proximity to ocean Occur where mountain ranges are close to the coast Notable for trees of massive proportion

6. Generally found near the equator Average of 25mm of rain an hour Leafy trees High rainfall/ Poor soil Home to 2/3 of all living animals and plants

7. Receives little precipitation Annual precipitation of less than 250 mm Take up 1/3 of the earth’s land surface High temperatures during the day/ Low temperatures at night time Extremely low humidity

8. High latitude region Covered with ice Mainly water ice Low surface temperatures North pole and South pole

9. Rocky pools by oceans that are filled with seawater Can either be small and shallow or deep Formed as a high tide comes in over a rocky shore. Isolated pools
