Biomes : a geographical area with similar climate, organisms and physical structure 2 types of biomes: terrestrial and aquatic Terrestrial Biomes named mainly according to the most common type of vegetation results from climate and soil type 11 terrestrial biomes + the ice caps each biome also contains characteristic animals -change with latitude - as you move toward a pole, climate gets colder 3 main groups of terrestrial biomes: deserts - low precipitation grasslands - grasses and/or shrubs forests - medium to high precipitation biomes also change rapidly with altitude makes biome distribution complicated altitude = height above sea level Aquatic biomes: marine and freshwater THE OCEANS two zones determined by depth , the Sun s penetration and nutrient supply .
