Central Question: What is the connection between plants and animals with the climate and landscape?

Guiding Thought Question: (Use the images below to help you answer the following question) - Even though two areas may be classified as the same biome why might they have such wildly different plants and animals? What factors will lead to different speciation?

Today's Learning Objective: Students will examine the biogeographic realms and explore their placement and characteristics. Students will examine the spatial distribution of Biomes and their groupings into regions.

Because perhaps different weather, different temperatures, and the overall area they’re located in can still have different types of animals and plants due to those factors

subtle differences can drastically change the environment and what can live there and the different adaptations like the butterfly effect

Plants and animals that live in similar climate zones have alike adaptations. For example, bears have a thick fur coat for in the winter.

Because while the biomes may be the same, the climate and weather patterns can still be wildly off from one another based upon their location on the planet. And this leads to the animals and plants inhabiting said biomes to be different as well.
