AP BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Flooded grasslands and savannas is one of the smallest biomes in the world by total land area. This biome is found only in small areas of North America, South America, Asia, and Africa.

Detailed explanation-2: -Chaparral is a coastal biome with hot, dry summers and mild, rainy winters. The chaparral area receives about 38–100 cm (15–39 in) of precipitation a year. This makes the chaparral most vulnerable to fire in the late summer and fall.

Detailed explanation-3: -While a biome can cover large areas, a microbiome is a mix of organisms that coexist in a defined space on a much smaller scale.

Detailed explanation-4: -LOCATION: The chaparral biome is found in small sections of most continents, including the west coast of the United States, the west coast of South America, the Cape Town area of South Africa, the western tip of Australia and the coastal areas of the Mediterranean.
