Store water in trunk during dry season, spines to protect from predators
Losing leaves in winter, thick bark to protect from cold
Grasses turn brown and store most water underground in roots, expanisive root systems

True
False
Match the description to the biome
Trees have needle-shaped leaves that do not fall off in the winter.
Desert
Offer protection and breeding grounds for aquatic life, fresh nutrient exchange
Coniferous forest
Leaves change color and fall off in the winter
Coral reef
High biodiversity, warm waters, marine ecosystem. Threat of loss of this biome due to pollution and ocean acidification
Estuary
Hot in the day, cold at night. Animals are often nocturnal.
Deciduous forest
