Tundra

The video explores the harsh conditions of the tundra biome, focusing on the Arctic and Alpine tundras. It describes the extreme cold, permafrost, and short growing seasons that define these regions. Despite these challenges, a variety of plants and animals have adapted to survive. The Arctic tundra, located near the North Pole, experiences severe winters and brief summers, supporting limited plant life and hosting migrating animals like Caribou and Snow geese. In contrast, the Alpine tundra, found at high altitudes worldwide, has a longer growing season but faces challenges like low atmospheric carbon dioxide. The video highlights the resilience of life in these coldest biomes.
