Biome information: 1. The name of the biome 2. The specific location in the world 3. Average temperature/rainfall for the specific area of the world you have chosen NOTE: The animals and plants you choose must come from the specific location of the biome you have chosen. If you picked Kalahari Desert than the animals and plants must be found in that specific desert. Animal information (need all for both animals) The phylum, class, order, family, genus, species of the animal What specific characteristics (anatomy and/or physiology) of the phylum/class allow it to survive in this biome? Explain how each characteristic allows it to survive in the biome (Discuss at least two) 3. Two interesting facts about the animal. 4. Primary source(s) of food/energy 5. Reproductive strategies, including mating behaviors, courtship rituals, etc. 6. An image—picture, diagram—of the chosen species 7. Minimum one reference for each animal Plant information (need all for each plant) Name of plant – Common and Scientific Characteristics of the plant that allow it to be successful in this particular biome A desсrіption of how the plant co-exists and/or is related to the animals in your biome An image/diagram of the plant Minimum one reference for each plant. Influence of climate change (at least one reference) How has/will climate change influence your chosen biome (rainfall, temperature etc.) How has/will climate change influence the two animals you have chosen for your biome. How has/will climate change influence the two plants you have chosen for your biome Cite ALL references (must have at least 5) used to acquire this information. Include citations within the text as well as on a separate page at the end of the paper.
