Tundra climate is probably the most biomes that are influenced by the climate. Four principal factors that affect Tundra climate are the solar radiation‚ the temperature‚ and precipitation as well as air pressure. Solar radiation is very weak in Arctic or Antarctic tundra which is why polar tundra are often covered in the snow compared to other tundra around the world. However‚ in summer‚ there is more solar radiation which gets the temperature to rise. Alpine tundra zone gets more solar radiation

in a species or a population‚ the gene pool. Domestication and plant breeding lead to a loss of genetic variety‚ hence the importance of “gene banks” Habitat diversity: The number of different habitats per unit area that a particular ecosystem or biome contains. It is associated with the variety of niches that may be exploited by different species. Conservation of habitat diversity usually leads to the conservation of species and genetic diversity Fitness: The ability for an individual to survive

Michele Baden Bio 100 – 05 ALLELOPATHY INTRODUCTION The purpose of this lab was to observe the effects of chemical warfare among plants. Plant seeds compete with other plants and seeds‚ for sunlight‚ and nutrients in order to germinate. In order to win dominance over other seeds‚ and reduce competition‚ plants produce and release a chemical in order to prevent other seeds from germination. This type of chemical warfare is referred to as allelopathy. Allelopathy exists in many parts of the plants
