Did you know that tundras are the coldest biomes in the world?
Tundra comes from the Finnish word 'tunturi' meaning treeless
plain. It was noted that it had frost-molded landscapes, extremely
low temperatures, little precipitation, poor nutrients and short
growing seasons.
Did you know that the first forests weredominated by horsetails,
clubmosses, and ferns that stood 40 feet tall? It was noted that
it had much more plants as the tundras have poor nutrients in
poor soil so the plants cannot survive itincluding the harsh weather
There can still be some similarities between the tundras and the forests.
Here are some of the similarities:
- Both are wet places.
- Both recieve rainfall.
