What is the difference between habitat and a biome?
A micro habitat is small habitat that exists on a normal habitat, where as the biome describes the type of area on a much larger scale. for example; a desert is a biome and in that desert there is an area where grass grows and lot of mice live in that area (habitat), and there is a part of that habitat where one of the mice feeds (micro habitat). a micro habitat can also exist on another animal (parasite).
How is a microhabitat different from a biome?
A microhabitat is a small, specific area within a habitat that has distinct environmental conditions and characteristics, such as under a rock or in a tree hollow. A biome, on the other hand, is a large geographic region with a specific climate, vegetation, and animal life, such as a desert or rainforest. Biomes encompass multiple ecosystems and habitats, including various microhabitats within them.
How are the plants in a desert ecosystem most likely to differ from the plants in a rain forest ecosystem?
Plants in a desert ecosystem are likely to have adaptations to conserve water, such as thick waxy coatings or small leaves, while plants in a rainforest ecosystem will have adaptations for high moisture levels, like broad leaves or aerial roots. Desert plants also often have deeper root systems to reach water sources underground, whereas rainforest plants may rely more on shallow roots to access nutrients in the topsoil.
Do desert plants have leaves?
Yes, desert plants have leaves, but they are usually small and adapted to conserve water through mechanisms such as reduced surface area, thick cuticles, and spines. Some desert plants, like cacti, have modified structures called spines that serve as leaves to reduce water loss.
