How are the trees different in these three biomes?
•Tropical forest consists of more…Tropical plants of course! These being: Palms, Orchids, ferns, vines, mosses, and more.
•Temperate forest tend to stick with more “dry” plants per say. Some examples: Oak, hickory, maple, elm, willow, ect.
•Ending with Boreal Forest, (otherwise known as taiga) inhabit plants of
which can survive harsher, colder climates. This includes: Pine, fir,
and spruce. “Needle like pines” if you will.
Describe the three soil types. Before you learned about the biomes,
which of the three would you have thought would have had the richest
soil? Why?
•Tropical Forest: Soil is nutrient-poor and acidic. Decomposition is rapid and soils are subject to heavy leaching.
•Temperate Forest: Soil is fertile, enriched with decaying litter.
•Boreal Forest: Soil is thin, nutrient-poor, and acidic.
Out of the three biomes, *Insert thoughts here*
For each of the three biomes, describe what you see as the biggest
challenge to plants and animals. What environmental factor most drives
their adaptations? (Example: For the desert, the factor would be the
lack of water and heat.)
•Tropical Rain forest: The lack of nutrients in the soil.
•Temperate Forest: Acid rain. <It kills trees & plants.
•Boreal Forest: Poor soil.
