Match the terrestrial biome with the correct types soil and relative productivity

Draggable item		Corresponding Item
Desert		- Nutrient-poor (slow decomp rate) - Low/Medium
Tropical rainforest		- Low nutrient levels (due to rapid plant growth) - High
Temperate rainforest		- High nutrient levels (rapid decomp rate) - High
Tundra		- Low nutrient levels (due to rapid plant growth) - Very high
Temperate grassland		- Low (due to leaching from winter rain) - Low
Taiga		- Warm - Medium (due to fires, long growing season, decomp)
Temperate seasonal forest		- Fertile soil (high decomp rate) - Low/Medium
Savanna		- Nutrient-poor - Lowest
Shrubland		- Nutrient-poor - Low
