The presence of a mountain range might affect the types of plants and animals found in an area because the range impacts how much moisture is in an area. Life on the windward side of a mountain generally is aided by the presence of plenty of water and tends to be cooler than life on the other side of the mountains. That side is usually dry and tends to be much hotter, so fewer plants and animals are found there, and the ones that are must be adapted to those conditions.
