What is the biome that has nutrient rich soil and is most often used for agriculture?
The deciduous forest has the most fertile soil because the leaves that fall each year during Autumn decay on the forest floor, allowing nutrients to leach into the soil. Deciduous forest soil gains nutrients at a sustainable rate. Compared to the rain forest, which has surprisingly very infertile soil, because the massive amount of decaying organic material is quickly turned into nutrients that plants very quickly consume, leaving the soil depleted and acidic.
What would happen to the plant population if the number of decomposers decreased?
The plants would not have enough nutrients from the soil because the decomposers are not around to decompose dead things and get the nutrients back into the soil.
What biome thin nutrient-poor acidic soil?
The biome that has the most acidic soil is the temperate rainforests.
What biome has very few tall plants growing in the sandy or rocky soil?
Taiga is a biome with sandy or rocky soil and very few tall plants.
Which variable does not effect biome distribution?
soil conditions
What soil is found in the Savannah biome?
Savannah biome has a fertile soil, it has an enriched nutrients.
What type of soil does the grassland biome have?
low nutrients and acidic
Occurs when an abundance of rainfall washes out valuable nutrients from the soil?
Leaching.

Which biome is the bread basket of the world is called?
The prairies are often called the "Breadbaskets of the world" because they are the biome most rich in soil nutrients and is most often used for agriculture.
How is the soil texture of the grassland biome?
what is the soil texture in a grassland biome
Would nutrients in the soil be an adaptation?
Nutrients in the soil come from decaying plant and animal matter, not adaptation.
Which soil would make a good habitate for soil animals?
Loam soil as it is rich in nutrients.
Which biome has the poorest soil?
The tropical rainforest biome.
Why do plants grow in a particular biome?
Plants contribute a lot to a biome. Firstly, they are the main source of food. Dead and decaying plants make the soil fertile, but they also use up the nutrients.
Which terrestrial Biome is called the breadbasket of world?
The prairies (as in the US Midwest and Great Plains) are called the breadbasket of the world. This is because they are the biome most rich in soil nutrients, and with irrigation it is widely used for agriculture.
What would plants take from the soil?
nutrients and water
