Which abiotic factor affects organisms living in the tundra?
average annual temperature
large predators
extreme heat
daily rainfall
Most of the nutrients in a tropical rain forest are returned very quickly to plants, so
the rain forest soil is very rich.
there are few animals in the rainforest.
there are few plants in the rainforest.
the rainforest soil is poor in nutrients.

Which of the following is a characteristic of the deciduous forest?
has permafrost
most animals are nocturnal
has many grasses and few trees
has trees that lose their leaves during the winter or the dry season
Trees in which biome have thick bark and thin waxy leaves to provide protection from the cold and their branches are flexible to cope with heavy snowfall?

Based on the case file and photograph provided, we can infer that the Giant squirrel is found in a forest biome. Which TWO arguments best support that the tropical rainforest would be the most likely forest biome that the Giant squirrel lives in instead of a coniferous forest biome?
Giant squirrels eat fruits, flowers, and insects which would be more likely to come from a
tropical location.
Giant squirrels have thick, white fur.
The trees where the Giant squirrels live are broad leaf and not needle leaf.
Tropical rainforests have a lower density of trees than coniferous forests.
Giant squirrels have long tails.
Using the evidence of the patterns of the abiotic factors from the climograph below, identify the correct biome.
