Chapter 39.6, Problem 1MC
Summary Introduction
To explain:
Which biome has the highest proportion of plants that have ancestors occupying the same biome as referred from fig. 39.26.
Concept introduction:
Biome is defined as the different biological communities that consist of wide variety of flora and fauna. The different biological communities are formed in response to physical climate.

Look for an ecosystem in local setting which shows an inverted pyramid. Is this possible in an ecosystem?
Use the concept of ecological succession to argue why a new lava flow that completely covers a climax forest at the base of a volcano is not necessarily a bad occurrence.
describe the type of ecological succession at play, and refer to the given example. Note that the origin of the lava flow is a natural part of Earth.
For this assignment you will be building a concept map of a specific biome’s characteristics and the adaptations that are found among the plants in it. You must select just one specific biome to focus on, and create a concept map that links together 18-20 ideas/terms/features/adaptations.
Please help me pick 18-20 concepts.
