True or false :
There are cold and hot desserts.
TRUE! :DDD
you get no question
you get 100 free points
YAY! :D
True or false :
Animals grazing (eating) on grasslands can change vegetation patterns of that area.
TRUE!
What is deforestation?
Deforestation is when a forest is permanently removed for other purposes.
When does top soil erosion occur?
Top soil erosion can occur when vegetation is removed from one area.
What are deserts? Explain.
A deserts is a vegetation region that does not get that much precipitation (rain,hail,sleet that falls on the ground) which makes the place very dry.
What are the 3 main vegetation regions?
The 3 main vegetation regions are :
Forests,grasslands,and deserts.
Do animals affect grasslands? Explain how or how not.
Animals do affect grasslands.When animals eat grass, they pull out some plants roots which can make it harder for grasslands to rejuvenate.
What affect does the wildlife have on deforestation?
Deforestation causes problems for animals and who rely on forests for survival.Animal habitats also get destroyed.
Can Vegetation change with latitude depending on the temperature?
YES! :D
What are grasslands? Expalin.
Grasslands are vegetation regions where grasses are the vegetation source.
(Basically just land filled with big grass and the grass is what most of the animals eat)
What are forests? Explain.
Forests are large areas of lands with trees and plants.
What are Invasive species? Explain.
Invasive species are living things like plants,animals,insects, and aquatic life that are introduced into a foreign ecosystem.This can cause harm to the native species already living there.
What are chemical fertilizers? How do they work? Explain.
Chemical fertilizers are made to put nutrients back into the soil.
True or false :
Precipitation amounts is on the Human factors side of why vegetation patterns change.
FALSE! :D
Name the two types of grasslands and explain what they are.
There are two types of grasslands, tropical Savannah and temperate grasslands.
Tropical Savannah has more precipitation and Temperate grasslands have less precipitation.
What are the two main forest types?
The Boreal forests and Tropical rain forests.
Give some examples of Invasive species :)
(this was in the article or slides)
Garlic mustard,Giant Hog-weed, and Periwinkle.
Also Giant Hog-weed reminds of Hogwarts.
What is Mono-culture? Explain.
Mono-culture is when someone is planting the same crop in the same location each year.
Where has deforestation become an important issue?
Explain the issue there.
Deforestation has become an important issue in Indonesia.Pulp and Paper companies are starting to cut down many forests, and farmers have replaced crops with trees.
Why is vegetation important? Explain.
Vegetation is important because they provide habitats for many animals,natural resources, and create oxygen for humans and animals.If there was no vegetation the soil would be prone from erosion.
:D
True or False :
Tropical rain forests are located near the equator between Tropic of cancer and Tropic of Caprecorn
FALSE!
its not Caprecorn
it is Capricorn
Where is Garlic Mustard found and Giant Hog-weed found? :)
Garlic Mustard is found in peoples backyards and forested areas is where Giant Hog-weed is found.
ADDING 100 TO POINTS IF THE PERSON GETS BOTH RIGHT!
What are the common mono-culture crops?
True or False :
Mono-culture is hard on the soil because it drains the soil of the same nutrients each time the crop is planted.
Common mono-culture crops are corn,wheat,soybeans,and rice.
True or False :
TRUEEE :D
Vegetation changes due to human and natural factors.Give 3 examples of both.
Natural F : Top soil erosion,Latitude,Temperature, and Precipitation amounts.
Human F : Deforestation,Chemical fertilizers,Mono-culture,Animal grazing, and Invasive species.
