Tropical rainforest
is a hot, moist biome where it rains all year long
Temperate Forest

squirrel
black bears
deer
biotic factors (plants)
moss
azaleas
mountain laurel
abiotic factors
sunlight
temperature
wind
Temperate forest
with high levels of precipitation, humidity, and a variety of deciduous trees Decreasing temperatures and shortened daylight hours in fall mean decreased photosynthesis for plants.
Tropical Grassland
biotic factors (animals)
Antelope
giraffes
Elephants
biotic factors (plants)
elephant grass
Rhodes grass
blue fescue
abiotic factors
Dry temperatures, some rain
fires
lakes
Tropical Grassland
Dry and wet seasons that remain warm all the time. The grasses die back to their roots annually and the soil and the sod protect the roots and the new buds from the cold of winter or dry conditions.
Desert
biotic factors (animals)
Bearded dragons
Sun spiders
Camel
abiotic factors
extreme temperatures (both hot and cold)
sandy and rocky soils
lack of humidity
Desert
the driest of all the biomes. a desert receives very little rainfall all year round.
biotic factors (plants)
Desert-willow
Joshua tree
Cactus
Temperate Grassland
abiotic factors
rocks
rivers
soil
Temperate Grassland
cold winters and warm summers with some rain. A few trees may be found in this biome along the streams, but not many due to the lack of rainfall
biotic factors (animals)
bison
grasshoppers
lions
biotic factors (plants)
lily
wildflowers
goldenrod
Temperate Woodland
abiotic factors
sunlight
rocks
temperature
Temperate Woodlands
hot dry summers, mild moist winters, nutrient-poor soil, and wildfires.
biotic factors (animals)
turtles
red foxes
salamanders
biotic factors (plants)

abiotic factors
Humidity

Tropical Dry Forest
trees where rainfall is lower, often associated with more strongly seasonal, tropical climates, rain shadows, or drying winds.
biotic factors (animals)
monkeys

biotic factors (plants)
Cycas seemannii
Garuga floribunda
evergreen trees
Taiga
abiotic factors
limited precipitation

are thick forests. Coniferous trees, such as spruce, pine, and fir, are common. Coniferous trees have needles instead of broad leaves, and their seeds grow inside protective, woody cones. While deciduous trees of temperate forests lose their leaves in winter, conifers never lose their needles.

Tundra
abiotic factors
strong winds
permafrost
snow
Tundra
the coldest of the biomes. It receives low amounts of precipitation, making the tundra similar to a desert. Tundra is found in the regions just below the ice caps of the Arctic.
biotic factors (plants)
