People and Earth’s Ecosystem
Often biologists group the different natural areas on Earth into categories based on plant and animal life and how they are able to
survive in that part of the world. These are called biomes. Grouping organisms into biomes help us to better understand the complexity of life
on
Earth. As you explore, you can color the different regions based on the type of biome.
