Which biome has low precip and high temp?
-
Desert
-
Tundra
-
Tropical Rain Forest
-
Coniferous Forest
Correct Answer
A. DesertExplanation
The correct answer is desert because deserts typically have low precipitation and high temperatures. These regions receive very little rainfall, often less than 10 inches per year, and experience high temperatures during the day due to the lack of cloud cover and vegetation to provide shade. The combination of low precipitation and high temperatures creates a harsh and arid environment, characterized by sandy or rocky landscapes and sparse vegetation.Rate this question:

Which biome has plants adapted to lots of rain?
-
Tundra
-
Desert
-
Tropical rain forest
-
Coniferous forest
Correct Answer
A. Tropical rain forestExplanation
The tropical rain forest is the correct answer because it is a biome that receives a high amount of rainfall throughout the year. The plants in this biome have adapted to this wet environment by having broad leaves to capture sunlight and a dense canopy to prevent excess water from reaching the forest floor. The abundance of rain allows for a diverse range of plant species to thrive in this biome.Rate this question:

-
Tundra

Tropical rain forest
-
Coniferous forest
Correct Answer
A. Tropical rain forestExplanation
Tropical rain forests have high precipitation and high temperatures. These biomes are characterized by heavy rainfall throughout the year, often exceeding 100 inches annually. The combination of abundant rainfall and warm temperatures creates a highly humid and lush environment, supporting a diverse range of plant and animal species. The high levels of precipitation and warmth contribute to the growth of dense vegetation and the rapid decomposition of organic matter, resulting in nutrient-rich soils.Rate this question:

Which biome has polar bears?
-
Tundra
-
Desert
-
Tropical rain forest
-
Coniferous forest
Correct Answer
A. TundraExplanation
Polar bears are found in the tundra biome. The tundra is a cold and treeless biome characterized by low temperatures, short growing seasons, and a layer of permafrost. It is home to various species adapted to survive in extreme cold, including polar bears. These bears are well-suited for the tundra environment, with their thick fur and layer of blubber that helps them withstand the freezing temperatures. They rely on the tundra's unique ecosystem, which includes ice, snow, and marine mammals, for hunting and survival.Rate this question:
