I.S.24 Jaad Shahout 616 6/12/10 Rain forest Biome The average rain fall a rain forest receives is 50 to 260 inches yearly (125-660 centimeters). Rain forest belongs in a wet climate. Its temperature does not go higher than 93 degrees (34 degrees Celsius) or drop below 68 degrees (20 degrees Celsius). The rain forests average humidity is 77%-88%. Almost all rain forests are near the equator. Half of all plant and animal species are in the rain forest. Tropical rain forests produce

Tammy Lim Period 1 Animal paragraph I am a Tundra Wolf. The Tundra wolf has good instincts in the wild which I possess in many different situations I encounter. For example‚ I do have a gut feeling whether if the person is to be trusted or not. Also when I encounter hard decisions‚ I always go with my gut feeling and never look back because I know my instinct will always lead me in the right direction.

According to “Climate” by Marietta College‚ there are two types of deserts‚ subtropical and temperate. Both of these deserts receive less than 100 centimeters of precipitation per year‚ earning them the classification of desert. Desert plants must undergo many adaptations in order to survive the unusually dry conditions that are associated with a desert. There is a long list of adaptations‚ but some of the most common are the reduction of leaves‚ development of the stem as a major photosynthetic

cacti‚ sagebrush‚ creosote bushes‚ shrubs‚ and short grasses. Agricultural plants are rare‚ because they are only found where rivers and streams take place‚ which is very uncommon in most deserts. The vegetation has adapted to survive in the desert biome by using several distinct features to prevent water loss‚ attacks from predators‚ and the harsh weather conditions. Many plants found in the desert are succulents‚ meaning that they have thick‚ large stems to hold and contain water. They also have

prepared for the experiment‚ one at room temperature and the other two at 15°C and at 5°C. The room temperature water bath was prepared by filling a basin with tap water about ¾ full so that when the subject’s face is submerged‚ the water will not spill. A thermometer was used in order to obtain the temperature of the water. The temperature obtained was at 26°C. The water baths having temperatures of 15°C and 5°C were also prepared the same way as the room temperature water bath only with the addition of

changes in temperature expands the air inside of the basketball causing it to bounce higher. This experiment was decided by observations made while playing the sport basketball. It was observed that when a basketball is left in the sun and made warm‚ the ball bounces higher when dribbled than if left inside. Our assumed result was that an increase in temperature would cause an increase in air pressure causing the bounce of the basketball to increase. The independent variable was the temperature in which

over the tropical rainforest biome. The tropical rain forest is a forest of tall trees in a region of year-round warmth. An average of 50-260 inches (125-660) cm of rain falls yearly. A tropical rain forest has more kinds of trees than any other area in the world. Scientists have counted about 100-300 species in one 2 ½ acre area in South America. Seventy percent of the plants in the rainforest are trees. There are a couple of topics that can be discussed within this biome such as the location‚ climate

02 December 2012 1. Title and Author 1. The Effect of Extreme Temperatures on the Rate of Photosynthesis 2. Jeffrey Xia 2. Abstract A previous lab in which we conducted‚ tested whether or not the light intensity had an effect on the rate of photosynthesis. We concluded that light intensity did possess an effect on the rate of photosynthesis – the closer the experimental plant units were to the light source‚ the more experimental plant units exhibited the effect of gas exchange in photosynthesis
