2 Abiotic Dominant Dominant Factors Plants Animals Tropical Rain Forest Hot & wet year round Ferns Woody vines Broad leaved evergreen trees Sloths Jaguars Monkeys Toucans Tropical Dry Forest Warm year round Alternating wet & dry season Tall deciduous trees Dense canopy Tigers Elephants Rhinoceros Monitor lizards
3 Abiotic Dominant Dominant Factors Plants Animals Tropical Savannah Warm, seasonal rain Tall perennial grasses, fire resistant trees Lions Cheetahs Hyenas ostirches Desert Very little rainfall Hot days & cool nights Succulents (ex: Cacti) Mountain lions Kangaroo rats rattlesnakes
4 Temperate Grassland Temperate Woodland Temperate Forest NW Coniferous Forest Abiotic Dominant Dominant Factors Plants Animals Warm to hot summer cold winter Perennial grasses and herbs Coyote Badgers Wolves Hawks Hot, dry summers, moist cool winters Cold winters warm summers seasonal rain Mild temp abundant rain Woody evergreen shrubs Deciduous trees conifers mosses ferns Firs Spruces Hemlock Redwoods Coyotes Fox Rabbits Deer Deer Black bear Bobcats Skunks Bears Elk Beavers
5 Abiotic Dominant Dominant Factors Plants Animals Boreal Forest Long, cold winter mild short summer Coniferous trees (ex: spruce & fir) Lynx Timberwolves Tundra Strong winds Low precipitation Permafrost Mosses Lichens Caribou Snowy owl
