Biomes are large, distinct ecological areas on Earth that are individually characterized by their climate, vegetation, and wildlife. Each biome supports specific types of plants and animals adapted to its particular environmental conditions, such as temperature, rainfall, and altitude. The major biomes include forests (like tropical rainforests and temperate forests), deserts, grasslands, tundra, aquatic biomes (like oceans, lakes, and rivers), and more. Biomes are essential for the health of the planet and all life forms. They regulate the climate, support biodiversity, provide resources, and help maintain the balance of ecosystems. Protecting biomes and preserving their integrity is key to safeguarding a sustainable future for all living organisms.
