The Phantom Menace: Real World Biome
Scene #1 is from Ep. I: The Phantom Menace. Name this real-world biome. Temperate Deciduous Forest
Please explain briefly this biome’s major identifying characteristics.
In the Woodlands of Naboo, there are many kinds of trees, plants and shrubs, Trees within the forests grow between 24m and a 35m tall and are usually broad-leaved trees. Different plants include ferns, vines, mosses, palms and orchids. There are also many different kinds of species, around 2 - 5 million different species. Dense growing trees produce a thick cover layer in forests that keep the sun from penetrating to the lower layers of the forest. this implies that almost all animals that live here should be adapted to living within the trees. A range of birds, bats, monkeys, …show more content…
The temperature in a rain forest rarely gets above 34°C or drops below 20 °C; average humidity is between 77 and 88%; precipitation is commonly more than a 254cm. there's sometimes a short season of less rain. The majority rain forests lie close to the equator. All tropical rain forests agree each other in some ways that. several of the trees have straight trunks that do not branch out for 30m or more. There's no sense in growing branches below the canopy wherever there's very little light. the majority of the trees have smooth, skinny bark as a result of there's no need to shield the them from water loss and freezing temperatures. It also makes it tough for epiphytes and plant parasites to urge a hold on the trunks. The bark of various species is therefore similar that it's tough to spot a tree by its bark. several trees will only be known by their flowers. Despite these variations, each of the 3 largest rainforests, the American, the African, and also the Asian--has a unique cluster of animal and plant species. every rain forest has several species of monkeys, all of that dissent from the species of the opposite 2 rain forests. additionally, different areas of a similar rainforest could have different
