Describe the 6 major land biomes?
Tropical Rainforest: Characterized by high biodiversity, heavy rainfall, and dense vegetation. Desert: Arid and dry with low moisture levels and extreme temperature fluctuations. Grassland: Dominated by grasses and herbaceous plants with few trees, found in regions with moderate rainfall. Temperate Forest: Contains deciduous or coniferous trees and experiences distinct seasons. Taiga: Known as boreal forest, characterized by cold climates and dominated by coniferous trees. Tundra: Cold and treeless biome with permafrost and low biodiversity, found near the poles.
Does a temperate forest have coniferous trees?
There is a bit of "transition" between areas of permafrost and the coniferous forests, but yes, a few trees will grow over permafrost. These trees will grow if there is sufficient "relief" in the form of seasonal thawing. That thawing allows soil of sufficient depth to unfreeze and support a larger plant like a tree. Trees would need a little longer period of thawing and enough of the soil to thaw so they can survive than, say, bushes, shrubs or flowering plants like those of the tundra.

Differences of deciduous and coniferous forest?
Coniferous- The trees there have 'needle' leaves that don't fall in the winter. This causes the soil to be very infertile, and hardly any plants grow on the ground. Deciduous- The trees here are 'deciduous' trees, which means that their leaves fall in the winter. This means that the soil (you guessed it) is more richer than the coniferous forest and many plants grow here, like brambles, grass, and other various bushes and flowers.
