A biome is a large ecological area on Earth’s surface with distinct climate, flora, and fauna adapted to specific environmental conditions. The major biomes of the world include tropical rainforests, which are characterized by high rainfall, dense vegetation, and a rich diversity of species. Savannas are grasslands with scattered trees, experiencing seasonal rainfall and hosting large herbivores and predators. Deserts are arid regions with sparse vegetation, extreme temperatures, and specially adapted plants and animals. Temperate forests, found in regions with moderate climate, have a mix of deciduous and evergreen trees and diverse wildlife. Grasslands, or prairies, are dominated by grasses and have fertile soils, supporting a variety of herbivores and predators. Taiga, or boreal forests, consists mainly of coniferous trees and has long, cold winters and short summers. Tundra is a cold, treeless biome with permafrost, limited vegetation, and unique cold-adapted animals. Each biome plays a crucial role in Earth’s ecological balance, supporting unique ecosystems and contributing to the planet’s biodiversity.
