The central part of North America is actually under the sea during Cretaceous period. The Great Plain of present day is inundated under the Western Interior Seaway. The fauna and marine life prospered under tropical condition, leading to an abundance of fossil fuels in places like Alberta or Bakken Basin.
There are six major biomes, each with various regions. They are: Freshwater: Ponds and Lakes, Streams and Rivers, and Wetlands Marine: Oceans, Coral Reefs and Estuaries Desert: Hot and Dry, Semiarid, Coastal and Cold Forest: Tropical, Temperate and Taiga Grassland: Temperate and Savanna Tundra: Arctic and Alpine
Eskimos live in the Arctic.
A temperate climate, found for example in New York state, is one which has cold winters, hot summers, and moderate spring and fall temperatures. This is in comparison to a tropical climate which never gets very cold, to an arctic climate which never gets very hot.
AnswerSome of the countries the polar regions run through are Antarctica, the Arctic, Greenland and some parts of Russia, including lines of latitude and longitude.
Yes, polar bears are on the top of the Arctic food chain. Then the seals.
There are tropical regions, polar regions,Arctic ReGIONS temperate regions
No. Manatees live in tropical and sub tropical regions, not in the Arctic.
Tiktaalik fossils were found in the Arctic because the region was warm and had a more temperate climate during the time when the fish lived. The movement of tectonic plates over millions of years shifted the location of the Arctic from a tropical area to a colder climate. This is why fossils of Tiktaalik, which originated in a warm marine environment, are now discovered in the Arctic region.
The climate in India is mainly tropical, with variations depending on the region. The Arctic climate is not found in India as it is a characteristic of regions near the North and South poles with extremely cold temperatures.
No they are not endangered but are found in all oceans from the Arctic and Antarctic regions to tropical seas.
Asia - which has tropical zones (Indonesia) up to arctic zones (Russia).
continental drift, which states that continents were once connected in a supercontinent called Pangaea and have since drifted apart. The presence of tropical plant fossils in the Arctic suggests that the island was once located in a different, warmer climate, supporting the idea that continents have moved over time.
North America: Varied climates from arctic in the north to tropical in the south. South America: Also varied, from tropical in the north to temperate in the south. Europe: Mostly temperate climate with some areas experiencing arctic or Mediterranean conditions. Asia: Diverse, with arctic conditions in the north and tropical in the south. Africa: Mostly tropical, with desert regions in the north. Australia: Mostly arid or semi-arid, with some temperate regions. Antarctica: Extremely cold and dry, with icy conditions prevailing.
yes they do
You won't find an Arctic wolf in a tropical forest.
The red fox lives on hillsides or rural areas such as farms or feilds. sometimes it is forced to live in the subarbs.
Hurricanes do not typically occur in the Arctic tundra. Hurricanes form over warm ocean waters in tropical and subtropical regions, while the Arctic tundra is characterized by cold temperatures and a lack of warm ocean waters needed for hurricane formation. However, with climate change, there is concern about the potential for more extreme weather events in the Arctic regions.
