Chapter 54, Problem 2COQ

Based on your knowledge of biomes, identify the biome in which you live. List and describe the organisms that you have observed in your biome. Why might your observations not fit the biome predicted to occur in your area from temperature/precipitation profiles?

Trends Along Latitude Lines Use the globe icon to change the view to a flat map, and use the gear icon to turn “on” the gridlines.  Scan across the globe along each of the latitude lines listed below, and record the biome types present.   Latitude Biomes noted at this latitude 60°N   45°N   30°N   15°N   0°     In 3-4 sentences, please summarize what you discovered regarding patterns of biome distribution in relation to latitude. Try to include points gathered from lecture material (or earlier in this lab exercise) to deepen your understanding.
Choose a specific biome between the marine, freshwater, or any terrestrial biome. Discuss the types of plants and animals in that biome. Describe the climate and any non-living components (such as water, rocks, soil) of the biome. Where can the biome be found? What biogeochemical cycles occur in this biome? Are there any reservoirs for the nutrients? Where can the nutrients be found and what processes do they go through as they transition to a different reservoir? Describe at least two of the biogeochemical cycles and the nutrients and minerals that move through them in your chosen biome.
In a tabular form, compare the different biomes based on specific criteria.  Follow the table format provided below. You may add columns and rows as you deem necessary. BIOME Criterion 1 (specify) Criterion 2 (specify) Criterion 3 (specify) Criterion 4 (specify)
