1 Biosphere 2 Photosynthesis Different biomes support different plants despite all plants photosynthesizing.

2 Essential Questions: In what biomes do plants grow bigger/taller/faster? In what process do plants use the sun to grow? (Photosynthesis) We have LOTS of sun in the desert! Why don’t our plants get as big as some of the other biomes? What is the relationship between a biome’s temperature, rainfall, & humidity, and plant size as measured by leaf size?
