What is a biome?

A biome is a large region characterized by specific types of climate and certain types of plants and animals communities. with a large or small biodiversty depending on the type of biome. A biome can be anywhere where their is biodiversty of plants and animals, or where their is the tiniest of live

How many different biomes can you name?

What Is A Desert?

A large area which covers up to 30% of the world surface. The climate which can either be hot or cold depending on the desert with some very dry and humity. It has very few biodiversty of animals, and plants. what characterizes a deserts is that if a surface land has at less than 10 inches of rain about 25 cenimeters it is a desert. very few water means that only certain plants and animals can live their like scorpion, snakes, camels, and lizards. Planst like cactus, wildflower.

How long do you think you can survie in a desert with no food or water?

Sinai Desert


The pirture you see here is the Sinai Desert's mountains which has very few rain fall and is a very dry and humity area. The Sinai is like most other hot deserts it temperture is hot with a lot of lunlight. The Sinai Desert is one of the many deserts in the Middle East.
Do you think their is any water stored in th sandy planes?

What Would You Find In a Desert?

Like many hot deserts you would find a lot of sand with very few plants in your travel. If you would happen to find some you would proably see the same plants toegther in a bunch. If you where to travel their for many days you would have a small change of getting rain. You should have shoes because if you get bit by a scorpican you are very likely to die without medical attention. You should be ready to walk long distance because their are many mountains in deserts that do have them.

If you had to bring three thing that you would have an infinate supplie of what would they be?

The cactus


Cactus live in very hot and dry places with very little soil. Cactus store water from rain which they use to keep to stay alive. Cactus take the water they have stored and store it into the sand so that when they need any they can take it from the ground which also helps insects get water. Many scientist believe that cactus changed their physiological traits to abapt to their enviornment.

Do you think cactus will ever change again to survie in the desert?

The Wildflower



Wildflower bloom fast after rain so they dont die. wildflower give nacturer to pollnaters so that the pollanater can survie. Wildflower give nacturer to pollnators so that they can survie. Wildflower leave many seeds before they die so that more wildflower plants can be made with out wildflower their will be less food for pollnators. Wildflower have not adapted to survie in their biome.

Do you think their will be no food left for pollnators in the desets if wildflowers were exstined.

The Scorpion


Scorpions are the ones who kills all the insects how kills plants to get food. The scorpions are the predotar of all the other insects they kill the insects for food but with out them their will be a over growth in insects and a descease in plants. Scorpions ahve adapted by having a stinger so they can kill bigger pray.
Do you think scorpions will ever adapt to grow to human size years from now?

The Camel

Camels are the prey for the top animals in the kigdom. It is food for its predators. It si pray for the animals that is the predator for the camel. If the died out their would be less of its predators or possebly exsintion. Camel adapted by being able to store water for long periods of times. being able to rune fast to get away from its predators.

Do you think that Camels could run that fast just by looking at this picture?

The World's Deserts Map



This is the map shows all the deserts in the world and all types like sub tropical deserts, cold winter deserts and cool coastal. Yes you can find these deserts on this map because tropcial is the color yellow cold winter is white and cool coastal is blue.
Do you think global warming will form more deserts all over the world?
