Biomes is the areas with the same type of biological communities (plants and animals) that is determined by

means there is enough rainfall to support trees, and the trees need to lose leaves in fall to survive from the cold
winter.

example should be from your own life experience, for example, from a place you have traveled to or lived
before. If you don't have that from your life experience, you may use examples from a book or article you read.
Please use the terms of biomes from the lecture and chapter (such as Tropical Rainforest, Woodland,
