Chapter 54, Problem 8TY

Summary Introduction

Introduction: The weather pattern prevailing in a particular region is known as its climate. Latitudinal variations in the solar radiations arriving on Earth cause temperature differences across the planet. Variations in temperatures across regions decide the type of biological species inhabiting them. The major types of habitats that are differentiated on the basis of different types of flora and fauna inhabiting them are known as biomes. Biomes are majorly of terrestrial and aquatic types.
