Making InferencesWhile excavating an area in the desert, a scientist discovers the fossils of very large trees and ferns.- What might the scientist conclude about biomes in this area?
The scientist might conclude that the area was once a forest biome and that the area received more rain in the past.
Use the graph below to answer the question . • Scientists involved in a field study of a biome produced the graph above. The line represents temperature and the bars represent precipitation. Which of the following is a valid conclusion about the biome? • A. The biome is a rainforest. • B. The annual variation in temperature (from high to low) is about 25°C. • C. The biome receives the same amount of rainfall each month. • D. The biome has little plant life.
B. The annual variation in temperature (from high to low) is about 25°C.
In a savanna, the average yearly rainfall is 150 cm. The average yearly rainfall in a desert is 25 cm. If a global climate change causes the savanna’s average yearly rainfall to decrease by 0.5 cm every year, in how many years will the savanna become a desert? • A. 50 years • B. 125 years • C. 250 years • D. 300 years
