This is a worksheet on biomes, habitats, and ecosystems. The task is to label nine different illustrations of biomes using the provided word bank.
The word bank contains the following terms:
- Desert
- Boreal Forest
- Marine
- Freshwater
- Savanna
- Grassland
- Tundra
- Temperate Forest
- Tropical Rainforest
I will analyze each illustration one by one and match it with the correct biome from the word bank.

Step 1: Analyze the top row of images
Image 1 (Top Left):
- This image shows scattered trees with flat-topped canopies and grassy ground.
- This is characteristic of a
Savanna biome, which is known for its grasslands with occasional trees.
Image 2 (Top Middle):
- This image depicts dense, lush greenery with tall trees, vines, and a humid atmosphere.
- This is a classic representation of a
Tropical Rainforest, which has high biodiversity and constant rainfall.
Image 3 (Top Right):
- This image shows an aquatic environment with fish, seaweed, and a seal on an iceberg.
- This represents a
Marine biome, which includes oceans and seas.

Step 2: Analyze the middle row of images
Image 4 (Middle Left):
- This image features cacti, sparse vegetation, and rocky terrain under a bright sun.
- This is clearly a
Desert biome, known for its arid conditions and specialized flora like cacti.
Image 5 (Middle Middle):
- This image shows deciduous trees with broad leaves, some turning yellow, suggesting seasonal change.
- This is a
Temperate Forest, characterized by four distinct seasons and a mix of tree types.
Image 6 (Middle Right):
- This image illustrates a river flowing through a landscape with green hills and water plants.
- This represents a
Freshwater biome, which includes rivers, lakes, and ponds.

Step 3: Analyze the bottom row of images
Image 7 (Bottom Left):
- This image shows open grassland with a horse grazing and scattered wildflowers.
- This is a
Grassland biome, dominated by grasses and supporting large herbivores.
Image 8 (Bottom Middle):
- This image depicts coniferous trees (like pines or spruces) in a dense forest.
- This is a
Boreal Forest (also known as Taiga), found in cold climates with evergreen trees.
Image 9 (Bottom Right):
- This image shows a deer standing in a landscape with low shrubs and no trees, under a cloudy sky.
- This is a
Tundra biome, characterized by permafrost, low-growing vegetation, and harsh, cold conditions.

Final Answer:
Here are the correct labels for each image:
-
Top Row:
- Left:
Savanna
- Middle:
Tropical Rainforest
- Right:
Marine
-
Middle Row:
- Left:
Desert
- Middle:
Temperate Forest
- Right:
Freshwater
-
Bottom Row:
- Left:
Grassland
- Middle:
Boreal Forest
- Right:
Tundra
This completes the labeling task based on the visual characteristics of each biome.
