The climate in northern Russia determines the vegetation to be of tundra type.

Explanation:

Northern Russia is on a very high latitude, and very close to the North Pole. Because this area receives very little and very scattered sunlight, it is very cold for most of the year. That has resulted in the area being frozen for most of the year, the growing season to be very short, and the soil quality very poor.

The vegetation that exists here has had to develop special adaptations because of the extreme conditions. It is vegetation of tundra type. This vegetation is usually very small, from few mm to few cm. The requirements for nutrition are very low, with very small roots, and adaptations on the surface to prevent water evaporation and freezing. Such plants are:

  • mosses
  • lichens
  • dwarf shrubs
  • sedges
  • grasses

Hurricanes vs tornadoes
lana66690 [7]
Hurricane: a type of storm called a tropical cyclone, which forms over tropical or subtropical water.
The ocean water evaporates caused by heat from the sun. The evaporating water forms a cloud of warm, moist air that moves upward. Then, as the warm, moist air rises, more air rushes into replace it.
Hurricanes form near the equator over warm oceans.

Tornado: a mobile, destructive vortex of violently rotating winds having the appearance of a funnel-shaped cloud and advancing beneath a large storm system.
Most tornadoes form from thunderstorms. You need warm, moist air from the Gulf of Mexico and cool, dry air from Canada.
