The Tundra is the coldest of all the biomes. Its keeps very low temperatures throughout all seasons and has poor soil nutrition. Its growing season is also incredibly short and it receives little precipitation.

# data[].attributes.body
Fauna:

Animals that live in the e Tundra have to be incredibly tolerant and adapted to the freezing temperatures. Examples of these animals are Arctic Foxes, Arctic Hares, Snowy Owl, Lemming, Arctic Ground Squirrel, Reindeer, Polar Bear, Wolf, Musk Ox, and Caribou.

Flora:

The amount of plants in Tundras is very low because of the lack of nutrition and precipitation. Plants such as Arctic Willow, Bearberry, Cottongrass, Pasqueflower, and
Labrador tea live in the Tundra.

Global warming is the most impactful effect of humans to Tundras. The increase heat leads to permafrost melting and ice melting which can breaks apart the ecosystem. Human mining and oil spills also cause toxic chemical cause ground to become infertile and unsuitable for vegetation growth, which in return kills animals that eat them.

The Taiga is a subarctic freezing forest. Taigas receive moderate precipitation and have long cold winters with short mild summers. Taigas have lots of animals and vegetation due to it receiving precipitation and having more suitable soil than Tundras.

The word "tundra" comes from the Finnish word "Tunturi" which means "Treeless heights" and refers to how Tundras have very little trees and long freezing winters.

Fauna

Cold climate tolerant animals such as Deer, Brown Bears, Grey Wolves, Mooses, Salmon, and Red Foxes live in the biome.

Flora

Vegetation must be very well suited to be able to live in the freezing Taiga's. For example Pine trees, Spruce trees, Firs, Bog Rosemary, and Fireweed all live in them.

# data[].attributes.body
Deforestation is one of the main problems that affect Taiga biomes. This is due to the valuable timber that grows in it. Forest fires are also a huge negative impact on Taigas because they can be unforeseen and ruin thousands of acres of land.

# data[].attributes.body
The Taiga is the largest land biome on earth, taking up about 17% of the worlds land surface.

# data[].attributes.body
Temperate Deciduous Forests are located in the mid-latitude areas which causes them to have four seasons. They usually have rich soil and long growing seasons. Vegetation and animals are abundant as well.

# data[].attributes.body
Fauna

Animals like grey squirrels, white tailed deer, opposums, raccoons, and black bears all live in temperate deciduous forests.

Flora

Plants such as oak trees, maple trees, poison ivy, elderberries , and dandelions all grow in temperate deciduous forests.

# data[].attributes.body
Deciduous forests face many threats of which the main one being deforestation. deciduous trees are often slow growing and so the deforestation has a huge long term impact on forests and often t Rees are cut down faster then they can grow back. Pollution also poses a huge threat as toxic chemicals and waste can leech into the environment and stay there for decades and kill plants and animals.

# data[].attributes.body
Temperate deciduous forests are the only biomes that go through all 4 seasons, fall, summer, winter, and spring.

# data[].attributes.body
Deserts are the driest of all the biomes and due to the lack of water vegetation is sparse. Deserts also experience huge temperature range. Temperatures at day could be 100 degrees Fahrenheit and at night drop all the way to 25 degrees Fahrenheit.

# data[].attributes.body
Fauna

Animals like Prairie Dogs, Addax, Camels, Jerboas, and Fennec Fox's live in deserts.

Flora

Plants such as Barrel Cactus, Aloe, Prickly Pear, Brittlebush and Arizona Poppies all grow in deserts.

# data[].attributes.body
Desertification is the Main problem caused by humans. Deserts are spreading outwards due to bad farming techniques and global warming. Desertification causes places with lots animals and plants to become wastelands.

Tropical Rainforest are dense and warm and receive huge amounts1 of rainfall. Tropical Rainforests have the highest biodiversity out of all biomes. They also have a year long growing seasons.

# data[].attributes.body
Antarctica is actually considered a polar desert because of the lack of precipitation is receives.

# data[].attributes.body
Fauna

Animals population are very diverse int the jungle some of which are Gorillas, Chimpanzees, Tree Frogs, Toucans, and Jaguars all live in the tropical; rainforests.

Flora

Plants are very abundant in the rainforest some of these include Rubber Trees, Kapok Trees, Venus Flytraps, Bengal bamboo, and Banana Trees all grow in the rainforests.

# data[].attributes.body
One of the leading negative effects of humans on rainforests is farming and pasturing. Lots of land is cleared to make room for cattle ranches as well as to use for farming. The abundant wood in r rainforest is also cut down and burned in power plants. Rainforests are the most negatively effected biomes in the world.

# data[].attributes.body
It can take as much as ten minutes for one rain drop travel down from the rainforests thick canopy and vegetation all the way to the ground.

# data[].attributes.body
Grasslands are very delicate biomes where there is not enough rainfall to support a forest but just enough to support grass. Grasslands often lie in between forests and desert and usually house abundant wildlife.

# data[].attributes.body
Fauna

Animals like Bison, Elk, Deer, Wild Horses, and Coyotes all live in grasslands.

Flora

Plants like spear grass, wheat grass, wolf willow, sunflowers, and clovers all grow in grasslands.

# data[].attributes.body
Grasslands are threatened by many different human actions. Some of which include unsustainable agricultural practices and overgrazing. These practiced cause grasslands to become infertile and unsuitable for animal or plant life and ruin the land. Grasslands are also easy to build farms on so crop clearing poses a huge threat against them.

# data[].attributes.body
Grasslands account for 20 to 40 percent of earths land surface area.
