Oceanic Biome A Biome is a large naturally occurring community of flora and fauna occupying a major habitat. There are a couple different types of biomes. There are six major groups of biomes which are; freshwater‚ marine‚ desert‚ forest‚ grassland‚ tundra. Then these six groups are broken down a bit father. In this paper we will discuss part of the marine biome which is the ocean biome. When one thinks of very large bodies of water such as the ocean‚ we are talking about marine biomes. Instead

and abiotic of ecosystems. I found the earth’s major biomes particularly interesting‚ and would like to reflect on them. According to the text book‚ a biome is a large‚ relatively distinct terrestrial region with similar climate‚ soil‚ plants‚ and animals‚ regardless of where it occurs in the world. There are four aquatic biomes and nine major terrestrial biomes. The nine major terrestrial biomes are: tundra‚ boreal

also characterized by seasonal water availability‚ with the majority of rainfall confined to one season. Savannas are associated with several types of biomes. Savannas are frequently in a traditional zone between forest and desert or grassland. The Savanna covers approximately 20% of the earth’s area. The Savannas is a wet and dry climate‚tropical savanna monthly dry season. Its the driest month of the year in most dry seasons having precipitation. The savanna has less rainfall than more pronounced

Tundra Biomes In the world there are about twelve biomes. The major biomes include deserts‚ forests‚ grasslands‚ tundra and several aquatic environments. A biome is large geographical area with special plants and animal groups and they are adapted to that type of environment. The Tundra biome is the coldest biome of the many biomes. It is separated into two types which are the arctic and alpine. The following information was gathered from a few websites which include Blue Planet Biome‚ National

The Taiga Biome is the largest biome‚ it Extends across Europe‚ Asia‚ and North America. The Taiga is known for having both Coniferous and boreal forest. Fires happen very often in the Taiga. There isn’t much diversity in the plants. They have lots of Conifer trees which is why it’s known to have the Coniferous forest. These trees are said to be evergreens which means they are green all year long‚ nor drop their leaves. A quick fun Fact: Most scientist believe that the Taiga biome was once completely

The Freshwater Biome By Lauren Finnis The freshwater biome is a complex biome that can be found all over the world. There are two major types of freshwater biomes. The first type is lotic or running which include rivers and streams. Lentic or standing is the second type; those include lakes and ponds. Since this biome is found worldwide‚ the species that reside in it can vary extensively‚ but usually it contains several species of fish‚ plants‚ and insects. Predation is a way of life in the freshwater
