Questions (Please copy)due on Tuesday! • 1. List 3 animals and their
adaptations for the desert. • 2. Why would desert plants with
very shallow root systems be a good adaptation to life in the desert?
• 3. What kind of soil is in the desert? • 4. How are plants adapted to life in
a desert? • 5. How are animals adapted to life
in a desert?

• I can give details about each biome.
• Can someone tell me what the word harsh means?

What animals do you find in the Tundra?• Animals—Caribou, polar
bears, musk ox, arctic hares
• Boggy pools ( perfect from mosquitoes and the birds that feed on them)

What about the plant life?
• Poor nutrients in the soil• Shallow roots and short
growing seasons• Mosses, lichens, some
shrubs
• Treeless •

What could be some of the animal adaptations? • Animals with thick fur, • layers of fat, • migrations,

How do plants adapt to life in the tundra?• Shallow roots• Adapt to a short growing
season

What changes takes place in the summer in the taiga? • Flowers bloom• Ice melts• Insects breed• Migrating birds move back
into the area

How do animals adapt to the tundra?•Thick coats •Layers of fat•Hibernation during the
winter

How is the taiga different from the tundra? • Create a Venn Diagram to
show your answer!
• What similarities and differences do you notice in these two biomes?
• What do you observe about the animals in these two biomes?

The taiga is south of the tundraHas forest of coniferous evergreen treesSoil is low in mineralsTaiga has cold temperatures but not as cold as the tundraThe tundra has no trees
