In Eastern Tennessee there are trees such as oak, maple, and beech that lose their  leaves each year.  What type of biome would these trees be found in?

Pitanje 2
2.

Which non-living factor affects organisms living in the tundra?

Pitanje 3
3.

Temperate forests have 4 distinct seasons

Pitanje 4
4.

Coniferous trees are found in the taiga biome. What adaptation allows coniferous trees to survive there?

Look at the list of Temperate Deciduous Forest Adaptations. Why are ALL of these adaptations important in a temperate deciduous forest?

Temperate Deciduous Forest Adaptations

-Rabbits change their fur color to blend in with their surroundings.

-Birds migrate to warmer temperatures in the winter.

-Bears shed fur in summer and grow thick coats for winter.

Which of the following descriptions matches the deciduous forest biome?

Pitanje 7
7.

Found in regions close to the equator. Receive a lot of rain & warm temperatures throughout the year with constant sunlight. Many diverse animals & tall trees form a canopy.

Pitanje 8
8.

Lots of trees that shed their leaves & grow new ones each year are found here. Receives 50 cm. of rain per year, enough to support the growth of trees & plants. Temperatures vary during the year with all the seasons. Many birds, opossums, bears, & porcupines are found here & may migrate or hibernate in the winter. Found in the eastern part of the United States.

Pitanje 9
9.

Here in northern Canada you will find many trees that have needle like leaves & produce seeds in cones such as pine, fir, & spruce trees. Winters are very cold with much snow & summers are warm enough to melt the snow and bring much rain. Trees have a waxy covering, a necessary adaptation to keep water from evaporating since much of the year the water is frozen. Many herbivores live here such as deer, elk, moose, & beavers that attract large predators such as wolves, bears, & lynxes.

Pitanje 10
10.

Extremely cold & dry biome located in the artic regions. Receives little precipitation like the desert but here most of the soil is permanently frozen. No trees grow here because of the permafrost not allowing for roots to grow. The top layer of soil thaws for grass to grow. Herbivores graze on the grass or lichen & have thick fur to withstand the freezing climate

Pitanje 11
11.

There are no large trees in this biome due to the bitterly cold winters and because roots cannot penetrate the frozen ground.
