During the day, land heats faster than water, causing pressure to form over land and pressure over coastal water. A) neither is
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

The answer to be filled in the given blank is

option B) low, high

Explanation:

Therefore, during the daytime, heating of land is faster as compared to water which causes <u>low</u> pressure to form over land and <u>high</u> pressure over coastal areas.

This is because the heat capacity of water is more as compared to land, i.e., water takes longer time to vary its temperature than land. Thus land gets heated faster as compared to water.

Therefore, movement of warm air above the land reduces pressure over land and increases pressure over sea.

Describe the Earth’s two forest biomes. How are these two biomes different from one another?
BARSIC [14]

Aquatic Biome  

The aquatic biome consists of any part of Earth that is covered with water. This includes freshwater and salt water. The aquatic biome can be further divided into freshwater biomes, marine biomes, wetland biomes, coral reef biomes, and estuaries. These subdivisions are based on the salt content of the water, the aquatic plants that live there, and the aquatic animals that thrive there.  

Forest Biome  

The forest biome is the largest and has a wide variety of plants, trees, animals, insects, and microscopic organisms. The major characteristic of the forest biome is its trees. About 30% of the Earth is considered a part of the forest biome. The forest biome is subdivided by its climate and types of trees present. These subdivisions are: the rainforest biome, temperate biome, chaparral biome, alpine biome, and taiga biome.  

Desert Biome  

The desert biome has one major, distinguishing characteristic, the fact that it has very little vegetation. The climate is rather extreme depending on its location. The deserts of Africa are extremely hot during the winters and warm throughout the rest of the year. There are also cold deserts such as those in Antarctica. These deserts are extremely cold during the winter and cold during the other seasons.  

Tundra Biome  

Tundra biomes are the coldest places on Earth. They are similar to a cold desert except they receive less rainfall and contain different animals and plants. Even though the conditions are harsh, the tundra biome does have plant and animal habitats.  

Grassland Biome  

The grassland biome is made of rolling hills of various grasses. They receive just enough rain to sustain grass but not enough to grow many trees. There are a few trees that will grow in grasslands but sporadic wildfires keep them under control. There are two types of grassland, the savannas and temperate grasslands.
