AP BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Mammals and birds can be found in both the taiga and the tundra. Both biomes are home to foxes, bears, wolves, hares, and rodents. The exact species, however, differ between taiga and tundra. For example, moose and deer can be found in the taiga, while reindeer are more common in the tundra.

Detailed explanation-2: -The taiga is a forest of the cold, subarctic region. The subarctic is an area of the Northern Hemisphere that lies just south of the Arctic Circle. The taiga lies between the tundra to the north and temperate forests to the south. Alaska, Canada, Scandinavia, and Siberia have taigas.

Detailed explanation-3: -Birds like the geese, water fowl, woodpecker and ducks will migrate south to avoid the long, cold winter. Some of the animals of the Taiga will store extra layers of fat and fur to help keep them warm over the cold winters.

Detailed explanation-4: -taiga, also called boreal forest, biome (major life zone) of vegetation composed primarily of cone-bearing needle-leaved or scale-leaved evergreen trees, found in northern circumpolar forested regions characterized by long winters and moderate to high annual precipitation.

Detailed explanation-5: -The three major forest biomes are temperate forests, tropical forests, and boreal forests (also known as the taiga). These forest types occur at different latitudes, and therefore experience different climatic conditions.
