It’s Your World!!! Biome Dodecahedron
Introduction:
Are you ready to explore your world? Are you adventurous? Do you want to protect the environment and the unique organisms that live here?
Biomes are defined as the world’s major communities. Each community is defined by the climate, vegetation, and organisms that have adapted to life in that particular climate. The importance of biomes can not be underestimated. Biomes have changed and moved many times during the history of life on Earth. Recently, human activities have drastically changed these communities. An understanding of these ecosystems and the conservation and preservation of these biomes should be a concern to us all.
