The taiga biome is the largest terrestrial biome and extends across Europe, North America, and Asia. It is located right below the tundra biome. The taiga biome is also known as coniferous forest or boreal forest. This biome typically has short, wet summers and long, cold winters. Precipitation is moderate in the taiga. It gets plenty of snow during the winter and plenty of rainfall during the summer.<span>Interesting Taiga Biome Facts:Fires are very common in the taiga biome. These fires are necessary to help rid the area of old and sick trees.There is not much variety in plants. Majority of the plants are conifer trees which is why the taiga is referred to as the coniferous forest.The conifer trees in the taiga biome are referred to as evergreen. This means they remain green all year round and never drop their leaves.<span>Because evergreen trees do not drop leaves, there is nothing to keep the soil in the taiga full of nutrients. This is the reason why there is not much variety in the vegetation. </span>Softwood timber is used to make paper. Majority of softwood timber comes from the taiga biome.<span>Although two major cities, Toronto and Moscow, are located in the taiga biome, most of this biome is uninhabited by people. </span>The taiga biome is very cold during the winter. Temperatures can reach as low as -60° F.For six months out of the year, the temperature in the taiga biome is below freezing.Plants can only grow during the summer when temperatures are favorable. This growing season only lasts about three months.Many animals of the taiga biome have to migrate to warmer areas or hibernate during the long, cold winters.Animals of the taiga have many specialized adaptions including lots of thick fur or feathers and the ability to change colors during different seasons.Scientists believe that the taiga biome was completely covered by glaciers many years ago.The taiga forests are endangered due to logging and mining by humans. When trees are cut down in the taiga, it takes a very long time to restore itself because of the very short growing season.Although there are not many animals in the taiga biome, it inhabits millions of insects. Birds migrate there to feed off these insects every year.<span>The temperature change in the taiga is extreme. It is either summer (hot) or winter (cold). The spring and fall are too short to notice.</span></span>
The answer is; C
As George gets nearer the light, more light enters the eyes of the retina. The eyes’ response will also be to narrow the pupils to regulate the amount of light entering the eye. This signal is transmitted through the optical nerve to the brain. The brain interprets how close George is getting and sends an impulse to the leg muscles on how to walk towards the light.
Answer:
Plants must have evolved in a manner where they require less water and nutrients as these two were the only limiting factor and carbon dioxide was in abundance
Explanation:
Some 400,000 years ago, the concentration of CO2 was very high and was near to 1000 ppm. At this high concentration of CO2 the photosynthetic activity of plants becomes very high and thus since 400,000 years ago plants could have evolved in an uncontrolled manner but this does not happened. So the reason behind this is limitation in terms of soil and its constituent’s nutrients availability and also limited supply of water.
Therefore, if plants would have evolved themselves in a manner where they require less water and nutrients then they would have grown limitless.
A seems incorrect
bcz from virus to mammals everyone have dna if im not wrong
C and D, but it can be B, since it occurs during cytokinesis and it begins before mitosis ends.
