Name the biome
This biome is home to low-lying shrubs and grass. It also features animals like Caribou, Arctic Fox and Musk Ox.
Tundra
The region of the Earth that surrounds the equator.
tropics
This climate factor can cause the following effects to neighboring communities:
cool in summer
warm in winter
additional precipitation
body of water
In what biome, would you find animals that have water storage or can survive using only the water in the foods they eat?
desert animal
This climate changer causes the oceans and the Earth to cool.
La Nina
desert
This moderate zone is between the equator and the poles.
temperate
This climate changers causes the rain shadow effect.
mountains
This animal adaptation is used to keep organisms warm.
fur
This is the outcome of the changes in solar radiation that Earth receives because of its spin.
*Daily Quad
seasons
This biome is home to a large variety of plants, due to the significant rainfall that it receives. It also houses many animal species like: Jaguar, Howler Monkeys, Poison Dart Frogs, Toucans, Tapirs and more.
Rain forest
This zone receives the least amount of solar radiation.
*Daily Quad
polar
This effect happens in cities because of the black surfaces that absorb heat.
*Daily triple
heat island effect
This animal adaptation is used to survive dry and hot conditions of summer.
estivation
This zone in our atmosphere blocks some of the Sun's radiation.
ozone layer
This biome receives no solar radiation during parts of the year. It is also called a cold desert. Living things are very limited here, because of the harsh conditions.
Polar
This zone includes our ecosystem.
temperate
This climate changer warms the oceans and thus warms the Earth.
El Nino
This adaption is used by animals to survive the harshness of winter.
*Daily Double
hibernation
This is what happens to the air on the back side of a mountain. (2)
cooler and dry
This aquatic biome features all the creatures in the ocean.
*Daily Double
Marine
What is unique about the equator in relationship to solar radiation?
The equator receives the most intense solar radiation.
This solar climate changer can reduce solar radiation.
sunspots
This may be a strategy used by desert animals to escape the intense heat.
burrowing
greenhouse effect
