Back

tundra

Front

The climatograph above corresponds to which of the following biomes: temperate grassland, temperate deciduous forest, tiaga, temperate rainforest.

Back

temperate deciduous forest

Front

What stays relatively stable over the whole year in a temperate deciduous forest?

Back

precipitation

Front

Which climatograph corresponds to the chaparral? Options: top climatograph, bottom climatograph, both represent chaparral, neither

Back

bottom climatograph

Front

How does the climate of the chaparral compare to that of the desert?

Back

The chaparral has a similar temperature range, but slightly more rainfall in the winter months than the desert

Front

Adaptation of an organism in THIS biome:

• really thick fur to protect against the cold temperatures
• modified leaves to prevent water loss
• large leaves to capture sunlight on the forest floor
• dormant flower to save resources

Back

large leaves to capture sunlight on the forest floor

Front

What is a similarity between the tundra and the desert? Options: low temperatures, high temperatures, low precipitation levels, permanently frozen ground

Back

low precipitation levels

Front

Adaptations of organisms in the chaparral and the desert? (List all except one) smaller leaves due to an abundance of sunlight, waxy leaf coating to protect against water loss, succulent structure to preserve water, broad leaves to absorb sunlight

Back

broad leaves to absorb sunlight

Front

Which aspects of a rainforest allow for high biodiversity? Options: stable high temperatures year round, high levels of precipitation year round, both high, stable temps and precipitation year round, neither high temperature and precipitation

Back

both high, stable temps and precipitation year round

Front

Which of the following biomes is found in all three zones around the world? Options: tropical rainforest, temperate rainforest, desert, taiga
