A pond is a small,shallow body of water.
products that come from wetlands including fish,cranberries,and plants,are valuable resources.
Wetlands were once considered to be useless,disease-ridden places.
ponds are almost completely with plant material,so the only clear,open water is the center.

Most grasslands have a dry season,when little or no rain falls.
The tundra is a cold,dry,treeless region,sometimes called a cold desert.
Temperate and tropical regions that receive between 25 cm and 75 cm of precipitation each year and are dominated by climax communities of grasses are called grasslands.
The most noticeable animals in grassland biomes are usually mammals that graze on the stems,leaves,and seeds of grassplants.
The driest biome on Earth is the desert,deserts recieve less than 25 cm of rain each year and support little plants life.
Warm temperatures,wet weather,and lush plant growth are found in tropical rain forests.

Rivers and streams contain organisms that are not as well adapted to swiftly flowing water,such as freshwater mussels,minnows,and leeches.
