The sky is pale blue in higher altitudes while it is deeper blue in lower altitudes. This is because there is more air molecule closer to earth surface (as a result of higher air pressure) than higher altitudes. The air molecules are responsible for scattering of sunlight hence giving the sky its blue hue. The more the air molecules the more the scattering.

Answer: The name of the biome is Tundra.
Explanation:
Tundra is the coldest of all the biomes. Tundra comes from the Finnish word tunturi, meaning treeless plain. It is noted for its frost-molded landscapes, extremely low temperatures, little precipitation, poor nutrients, and short growing seasons. Dead organic material functions as a nutrient pool. The two major nutrients are nitrogen and phosphorus. Nitrogen is created by biological fixation, and phosphorus is created by precipitation.
Characteristics of tundra include:
Extremely cold climate
Low biotic diversity
Simple vegetation structure
Limitation of drainage
Short season of growth and reproduction
Energy and nutrients in the form of dead organic material
Large population oscillations.
Definition of Term:

What is a biome? Biomes are very large ecological areas on the earth's surface, with fauna and flora (animals and plants) adapting to their environment. Biomes are often defined by abiotic factors such as temperature, climate, relief, geology, soils and vegetation.
