Biomes

The lithosphere is the rigid outermost layer of Earth, consisting of the crust and upper portion of the mantle. It is divided into several large tectonic plates that float on the semi-fluid asthenosphere beneath.

they eat the dead matter and recycle it back into the environment and soil ready for the plants to use again

The biome with many thorny bushes and dense thickets is likely a chaparral biome. These areas typically have hot, dry summers and mild, wet winters, and are common in regions with Mediterranean climates such as California and parts of Australia. The thickets and bushes serve as adaptations to reduce water loss and deter herbivores.

There is no known combination of any separate ogagasims that can mate and produce fetil off-spring. They can however produce sterial off-spring such as a mule.

P.S.- Sorry for the bad spelling

There is a lot of animals that live in the rainforest like birds,parrots,tigers,and all kind of other animals.

Tropical rainforests are believed to be the biome with the highest species richness. These diverse ecosystems support a wide variety of plant and animal species due to their warm temperatures, high humidity, and abundant rainfall.

Yes, all the biomes together make up the biosphere, which is the global sum of all ecosystems on Earth including all living organisms and their habitats. Biomes are specific geographic regions characterized by distinct climate, flora, and fauna, contributing to the overall diversity and balance of the biosphere.

On a journey to the North Pole, you would pass through the tundra biome initially, characterized by low temperatures and treeless landscapes with mosses and lichens. As you approach the North Pole, you would enter the polar ice cap biome, dominated by ice and snow with very few plant species able to survive in extreme cold conditions.

The average rainfall for ponds and lakes biome varies depending on the region and climate. However, these biomes typically receive a moderate amount of rainfall, which is necessary to maintain the water levels in the ponds and lakes.

Virgin vegetation refers to natural and untouched plant life that has not been disturbed or influenced by human activities. It represents original and undisturbed ecosystems that have not been altered by agriculture, urbanization, logging, or other human interventions. Virgin vegetation plays a crucial role in maintaining biodiversity and ecosystem balance.

Commensalism relationships are between two organisms where one organism benefits, but has no effect on the other. An example that occurs in a boreal forest is between a squirrel and a tree. Trees offer squirrels protection from predators and place to build nests and raise their young. The squirrel benefits greatly from the tree, but its benefits do not affect the tree.

A desert biome is mainly determined by low annual precipitation levels, typically less than 25 centimeters per year. Other defining characteristics include high temperatures, sparse vegetation, and limited biodiversity.

As you move higher, two things happen:

1) It gets colder.

2) The air gets thinner.

As it gets colder and there's less air, larger plants and animals have a hard time surviving, so smaller animals and foliage become more prevalent. At the base of the mountain, there are a lot of trees because of the suitable temperature. When you get higher, there's only going to be snow.

The driest biomes on Earth are deserts and semi-deserts. These regions receive very little rainfall, resulting in arid conditions with minimal vegetation and scarce water sources. Examples of deserts include the Sahara Desert in Africa and the Atacama Desert in South America.

Massachusetts has many biomes in it, but one of them is more common than others and that would be deciduous woodlands. These woodlands cover all most all of Massachusetts. Other biomes in Massachusetts include Seacoast and mountainous regions. On terms of open space or Grassland habitats Massachusetts has lots of agriculture fields, Hayfield's/cornfields, shrubby fields and meadows, and small grasslands.

The biome that fits this description is the tundra biome. It is characterized by very low temperatures, little precipitation, and permafrost, which is a layer of permanently frozen soil found beneath the surface.

There are many different kinds of perch. If you mean the perch that coarse fisherman catch in England, a predatory fish with a green striped body and red fins, then this is widely distributed through most waterways in the British Isles. There are also tropical perch species, that aren't related, such as the Ctenopoma or bush fish that live in Africa. And then there are many sea fish that are known as perch, that again aren't related, and which live all over the world.

Oklahoma is primarily located in the temperate grassland biome known as the Great Plains. This biome is characterized by vast grasslands, few trees, and a continental climate with hot summers and cold winters.

Humans have caused changes to biomes through activities like deforestation, urbanization, pollution, and climate change. These activities have led to habitat destruction, loss of biodiversity, and disruption of ecosystem functioning within various biomes around the world.

Some human activities in the savanna biome include agriculture, cattle ranching, tourism, and mining. These activities can have both positive and negative impacts on the ecosystem and wildlife of the savanna. Efforts are being made to promote sustainable practices in these activities to protect the savanna biome.

Redwood trees have adapted to temperate forests with thick, fire-resistant bark to protect against wildfires, shallow root systems that spread wide to anchor in the moist soil, and high tannin content in their leaves to deter herbivores. Their needles also have a waxy coating to reduce water loss and retain moisture in the foggy environment.

It's actually the rain forest because that is the biome closest to the equator, meaning that it has a net radiation budget surplus (more solar radiation is absorbed than reflected/re-emitted as infrared radiation), unlike the biomes closer to the poles which will have a net radiation budget deficit (more infrared radiation is re-emitted/reflected than solar radiation that is absorbed).

Some adaptations of the cougar in temperate forests include their excellent camouflage to blend with the surroundings, their ability to ambush prey by silently stalking them, and their powerful hind legs for leaping and climbing trees to escape predators or hunt. They also have keen senses of sight and hearing to detect prey or threats in the dense forest environment.
