Summary:

  • A biome is a group of similar ecosystems with the same general abiotic factors and primary producers.
  • Different biomes, such as a forest or a desert, obviously have different communities of plants and animals.
  • Different plants will attract different animals (herbivores) to eat these plants.
  • These animals, in turn, will attract other animals to eat the herbivores.
  • The type of plants that live in a biome are going to attract a certain type of animal to that habitat.
  • It is the interaction of the abiotic and biotic factors that describe a biome and ecosystem.
