student's answer
What causes global wind currents?
The tendency for warm air to rise and cool air to sink, for example, cool air over the poles will sink.
What are the three types of symbiosis and define them.
Mutualism (both organisms benefit), commensalism (one organism benefits, the other is neither helped nor harmed), and parasitism (one organism lives inside the another and harms it).
There are ten: tropical rainforest, tropical dry forest, tropical savanna, desert, temperate grassland, temperate woodland, and shrubland, temperate forest, northwestern coniferous forest, boreal forest, and tundra.
What are coral reefs?
coral animals that live in shallow water of tropical coastal oceans.
