Physical World Unit 1 Lesson 10 Biomes

Essential ?’s What are the 4 widely recognized biomes in the world? What are general locations of the 4 biomes?

No Map Items !!!

Biomes Large ecosystems characterized by distinctive types of plants & animals, which are maintained under climate conditions. Plants & animals depend on soil & climate to get nutrients for survival. Most recognized = Tundra, Grassland, Forest, & Desert

Tundra Northern hemisphere. Cold, desert like conditions, very short growing season. Brutal winters & mild summers.

Grassland Spans most continents & supports different plant life with various soil.

Savanna Warm to hot climates. Porous soil, does not hold H2O well.

Forest 1/3 Earth’s land. Contains 70% carbon based living forms.

desert 20% Earth’s surface. Little shelter from elements. Extreme conditions.
