Biomes
Biome: A large-scale biome is a major regional or global biotic community characterized by distinctive climate and fauna.
Aquatic Biomes: Aquatic biomes are divided into two main categories: marine, which includes oceans, and freshwater, which includes streams, rivers, lakes and ponds.
Terrestrial Biomes: Terrestrial biomes are land biomes and are typically defined by the type of vegetation that is present. Examples of terrestrial biomes include forests, grasslands, deserts, and tundra.

Biomes: Earth's Major Life Zones
Biomes are major life zones on Earth characterized by distinct plant and animal life. These life zones are determined by climate, such as temperature and precipitation. Biomes include tundra, taiga, tropical rainforest, temperate forest, grassland, and desert.

Did you know?
Biomes are divided into two main types: terrestrial and aquatic. Terrestrial biomes include tundra, taiga, temperate deciduous forests, grasslands, and deserts. Aquatic biomes include both freshwater and saltwater biomes. Biodiversity is greater in tropical rainforest biomes than in any other biome. There are more species of plants and animals in these biomes than any other. The world’s largest biome is the ocean. It covers over 70% of the Earth’s surface and is home to millions of species of plants and animals.
