  • Biomes
    Diverse biological communities were various plants and animal species share common characteristics for the environment, they are thriving in
  • Tropical Moist Forest
    • Share standard features such as rainfall and unchanging temperatures
  • Tropical Seasonal Forest

    • Have annual dry seasons but with periodic rain to support tree growth
  • Savannas
    • Areas with too little rainfall to support forests
  • Temperate Grassland
    • Plants and animals are adapting to prolonged droughts, and both extreme heat and cold in this area
  • Coniferous Forest
    • Rainy forest which is often enclosed in fog, cool in temperature, and the most humid coastal forests
  • Tundra
    • Treeless landscape located in the mountaintops or high latitudes, and the growing season of this biome is only two to three months
  • Phytoplankton
    Free-floating photosynthetic plants, microscopic algae which are essential to support the marine food web
  • Wetland
    • Shallow biological systems where the land surface is saturated or lowered in the late part of the year
  • Bogs
    • Areas of concentrated land, and usually, the ground is comprised of deep layers of accumulated, undecayed vegetation known as peat
  • Environmental Science
    An interdisciplinary science integrating natural sciences, social sciences, and humanities in broad study of the world around us
  • Environment
    The circumstances or conditions that surrounds an organism or group of organisms or the complex of social or cultural conditions that affect an individual or community
  • World Wildlife Fund
    A movement created to protect animals and places from human developmental activities
  • Environmental Justice Movement
    An international movement that aims to encourage social, economic, and environmental justice
  • Open System
    Refers to systems that receive inputs from surroundings and produce outputs that leave the system
  • Second Law of Thermodynamics
    It is a law which states that energy is degraded to lower-quality forms, or it dissipates and is lost, as it is used
  • Food Chain
    An inefficient energy chain
  • Food Web
    A feeding relationship usually weave numerous organisms into large, complex, and dynamic networks
  • a biological community of interacting organisms and their physicalenvironment.
    Ecosystem
  • a large naturally occurring community of flora and fauna occupying a major habitat, e.g. forest or tundra.
    Biome
  • the plants of a particular region, habitat, or geological period
    Flora
  • the animals of a particular region, habitat, or geological period
    Fauna
  • an area or division, especially part of a country or the world having definable characteristics but not always fixed boundaries.
    Region
  • this are wetlands with trees.
    swamps
  • are areas of concentrated land, and usually, the ground is comprised of deep layers of accumulated, undecayed vegetation known as peat
    Bogs
  • are like bogs except that they are mainly fed by groundwater, sothey have mineral-rich water and exceptionally adapted plant species.Bogs are primarily fed by precipitation.
    Fens
  • they are diverse biological communities were variousplants and animal species share commoncharacteristics for the environment, they are thriving in.
    biomes
  • these forests share standard features such as rainfalland unchanging temperatures.
    Tropical Moist Forest
  • These forests have annual dry seasons but with periodic rain to support tree growth.
    Tropical Season
  • These are areas with too little rainfall to support forests.
    Savannas
  •  The plants and animals are adapting to prolonged droughts, and both extreme heat and cold in this area.
    Temperature Grassland
  •  rainy forest which is often enclosed in fog, cool in temperature, and the most humid coastal forests.
    Coniferous Forest
  • It is a treeless landscape located in the mountaintops or high latitudes, and the growing season of this biome is only two to three months
    Tundra
  • They are free-floating photosynthetic plants, microscopic algae which are essential to support the marine food web.
    Phytoplankton
  • They are shallow biological systems where the land surface is saturated or lowered in the late part of the year.
    Wetland
  • trees that grow in saltwater. They take place alongcalm, shallow, tropical coastlines around the world.
    Mangroves
  • known in marine ecosystems because of their exceptional biological productivity and their diverse
    Corals Reefs
  • In this area, extreme cold and short summer limit the growth rate of trees. the dominant trees here are pines, hemlocks, spruce, cedar, and fir.
