2. Reason why I chose this  I chose the desert biome because I live in one and I want to learn more about it.

3. Environmental Factors on the Desert  Global Warming has caused an increase of rainfall in the deserts.  Global Warming may affect the monsoon belts that go over the desert.  Increased C02 levels made the vegetation survive without fertile soil and without water during extreme droughts

4. Animal Relationships in the Desert  Mutualism Algae and Fungus- Algae creates food for Fungus and the Fungus forms a barrier for the Algae to prevent it from drying out Commensalism Microbes and a Cactus- Microbes collect water for cactus

5. Animal Relationships (continued)  Predator Prey Hawk and Mouse- Hawks hunt and eat Mice
