Answer:
A: Frozen taiga
Explanation:
Russia is the largest country in the world, and its land has several different characteristics. One of them though dominates by far, and that is the taiga, which is occupying more area than all of the other biomes in the country combined.
The taiga is stretching across all of the country from west to east, while the rest of the biomes are north and south of it. The land is covered with dense coniferous forests, representing the largest continuous forest in the whole world.
The taiga is not the most pleasant place for living though. The majority of the year is winter, and the temperatures are extremely cold, and in some parts of it they are as low as in Antarctica. There is lot of snowfall, usually several meters deep. The short summers are mild and very humid. Everything defrosts so big portion of the taiga is becoming marshy.
The rotating loops of currents that occur in the ocean are referred to as gyres.
Answer:
area of land dropping steeply towards deep ocean basins
<span>The marine west coast climate is a biome characteristic of being located midway between the tropics and arctic or Antarctic regions of the world, most often between 35 and 60 degrees north. This climate's major characteristics are mild summers and winters and abundant annual precipitation. This ecosystem is highly influenced by its proximity to the coast and to mountains. It is sometimes known as the humid west coast climate or the oceanic climate. In additional to coastal plains and mountains, this type of climate is often characterized by glacial valleys and fjords.
Marine west coast climates are typically found to the west of large mountain ranges that cause fronts to collide and release all of their precipitation. Wet warm air from the coast rises and cools as it goes over the mountain. This causes the water in the air to cool and condense, resulting in rain, drizzle, and fog. Then drier air proceeds inland. This is known as the rain shadow effect, which in basic terms is when a mountain blocks the advance of wet weather, creating a dry biome on the other side and a wet biome on the ocean side. This results in a very special climate.
Think of areas such as British Columbia in Canada, Washington and Oregon in the United States, and most of the continent of Europe. Parts of Africa and Australia are also considered marine west coast despite not being located on a west coast of the continent.</span>
