What is a biome?

Answer by  Answers (106)

A biome is an example of a specific ecosystem. In regards to a school project you will want to display one of these various ecosystems in the project. Perhaps a shoebox with animals, soil, insects, and plants from a certain geographical region, or representations of them. Desert, rainforest, arctic - these are examples of different biomes.

One example of a biome is a desert. It is a large geographical area characterized by specific types of plants and animals. In the case of the desert, the plants would be cactus and the animal would be a camel.

A real biome is a large naturally occurring community of flora(plants) and fauna(animals) living in one major habitat/environment which has the same climate/temperature and such (think: forest, tundra, etc). Create an play minature example of one of those and you'll be fine.

It is a small ecosystem within an enclosed space. It may include the base plant species, herbivore that eats that plant and maybe a predator.

A biome is a group of plants that live in the same climate, region, terrain, and other environmental factors. For example the desert, rainforest, tundra, etc. To build one I suggest picking a region then researching the types of plants that can be found there.I'm not sure if animals are included in a biome.
