GRASSLAND -Grasslands are areas dominated by grasses.

They occupy
about 20% of the land on the earth surface. Grasslands occur in both in
tropical and temperate regions where rainfall is not enough to support the
growth of trees. Grasslands are found in areas having well-defined hot and
dry, warm and rainy seasons.

SAVANNA- A savanna is a rolling grassland scattered with shrubs and


isolated trees, which can be found between a tropical rainforest and desert
biome. Not enough rain falls on a savanna to support forests. Savannas are
also known as tropical grasslands.
DESERT-A desert is a region of land that is very dry because it receives low
amounts of precipitation (usually in the form of rain, but it may be snow,
mist or fog), often has little coverage by plants, and in which streams dry up
unless they are supplied by water from outside the area.

TROPICAL RAINFOREST -is a hot, humid, and flourishing dense forest,


usually found around the equator. Tropical rainforests receive around
100 inches (254 centimeters) of rainfall yearly, and contain tall broad-
leaved evergreen trees that form a continuous canopy.
TUNDRA- is the coldest of all the biomes. Tundra comes from the Finnish
word tunturi, meaning treeless plain. It is noted for its frost-molded
landscapes, extremely low temperatures, little precipitation, poor nutrients,
and short growing seasons.

TAIGA- is a forest of the cold, subarctic region. The subarctic is an area of the
Northern Hemisphere that lies just south of the Arctic Circle. The taiga lies
between the tundra to the north and temperate forests to the south. Alaska,
Canada, Scandinavia, and Siberia have taigas.
