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.
Mangrove trees have shallow roots that start above the ground. These roots filter out salt so the tree can receive fresh water. Based on this information, in which area are mangroves best suited to grow?

mountains of the tundra
a coastal area of an estuary
a sandy desert

Savanna
Rainforest
Deciduous Forest
Conifereous Forest
Which biome is characterized by the following?
Animals: burrow, thick outer coverings to reduce moisture loss, eat foods containing water

Which statement about the deep ocean zone is true?
Phytoplankton dominate this zone of the ocean.
Coral reefs are commonly found in this zone.
Organisms in this zone must be able to survive major changes in salinity.
