Winters there tend to be very mild, with temperatures of about 50 °F. The winter climate is also known as the Mediterranean climate, which while not very rainy, is typically mild and moist. ]]> 2019-04-26 19:35:57 UTC https://padlet.com/s1876811/fi2wxkrxamak/wish/354587921 s1876811 https://padlet.com/s1876811/fi2wxkrxamak/wish/354588470 Soil in the Chaparral. Chaparral soils are thin and rocky, nutrient poor and highly susceptible to erosion. ]]> 2019-04-26 19:38:20 UTC https://padlet.com/s1876811/fi2wxkrxamak/wish/354588470 s1876811 https://padlet.com/s1876811/fi2wxkrxamak/wish/354588768  The average rainfall is 10 to 17 inches a year. During the winter, the temperature can get as low as 30° F and the summers can get up to 100° F. The average temperature in the chaparral biome is 64° F. ]]> 2019-04-26 19:39:43 UTC https://padlet.com/s1876811/fi2wxkrxamak/wish/354588768 s1597885 https://padlet.com/s1876811/fi2wxkrxamak/wish/354588770 The chaparral biome includes multiple mountains and plains. the chaparral biome is often confused with the desert biome because of its dryness. the chaparral bimoe also has more rainfall than the desert biome. ]]> 2019-04-26 19:39:45 UTC https://padlet.com/s1876811/fi2wxkrxamak/wish/354588770 s1876811 https://padlet.com/s1876811/fi2wxkrxamak/wish/354588974 Mutualism: Exists between the manzanita plant and the coyotes and foxes that eat its seeds. Commensalism:
The Red-Winged Blackbird builds its nests in the chaparral's reeds. The reeds do not benefit from this, but the Red-Winged Blackbird benefits by having a place to live.
Parasitism:
The Pacific Coast Tick latches itself onto the San Joachin Kit Fox for food. The Pacific Coast Tick benefits from getting food from the San Joachin Kit Fox, but the San Joachin Kit Fox is hurt because the tick transfers diseases into it's bloodstream and sucks up it's blood. ]]> 2019-04-26 19:40:43 UTC https://padlet.com/s1876811/fi2wxkrxamak/wish/354588974 s1597885 https://padlet.com/s1876811/fi2wxkrxamak/wish/354588976 The plant King Protea, which is found in the Chaparral in South Africa,  has the ability to absorb water through its leaves due to the lack of rainfall. Another example is the Olive Tree. The tree is a very common plant in the Chaparral. It thrives off of the environments climate because it makes its produce healthier. ]]> 2019-04-26 19:40:43 UTC https://padlet.com/s1876811/fi2wxkrxamak/wish/354588976 s1597885 https://padlet.com/s1876811/fi2wxkrxamak/wish/354592002 The Road Runner is well adapted to the hot, dry weather. It has special glands that allow it to use excess salt.
