The Tundra Biome (Rus:Tundra - Arctic hill) - The word 'tundra' means 'North of the timber line'. Tundra biomes lie north of timberline or 60 o N latitude between the Arctic ocean and the Coniferous forests. It covers about 8 x 10 6 sq.km ..

The word 'tundra' means 'North of the timber line'. Tundra biomes lie north of timberline or 60 o N latitude between the Arctic ocean and the Coniferous forests. It covers about 8 x 10 6 sq.km area (8 million km 2 ) extending across North America, Europe and As..

Food Webs - In nature, the food and feeding relationships of plants and animals are rarely as simple as the examples of food chains described above, because many animals eat more than one kind of food. On this account, different kinds of food..

Food Chains and Food Webs - While studying the biotic components in an ecosystem we have realised that food prepared by green plants is consumed by a series of consumers, both herbivores and carnivores, and finally broken down into their elements and released..

Vegetation in tundra is very sparse. Hence, it is also called 'arctic desert'. It exhibits very low species diversity. a) Biome is virtually treeless and is comprised of only Lichens (Cladonia - Reindeer moss) and Mosses (Sphagnum - Peat moss) forming the main vegetation. b) Oth..

Summary - The biotic and abiotic components form an interacting system called 'ecosystem'. Producers, consumers and decomposers are the various trophic levels, which are linked by their food relationship forming a 'food chain'. Several food chains are interrelated and ..
