EntranceApparently richer. Specify what measures can be used to protect animals. Determine which animal you are talking about.
1) Recall from the courses of botany and zoology how plants and animals are adapted to their environment.
Animals adapt to their environment with the help of special coats, wool and feathers, camouflage coloration, the presence of defensive needles and claws, and shells. Adaptation are also biological rhythms, seasonal migrations. Plants form specific forms, various modifications of leaves, stems, roots. Leaf fall is an adaptation to the cold season.
2) What primarily affects the placement of plants and animals?
The location of plants and animals is primarily influenced by climate.
Questions in a paragraph
*Think about what continents and countries the flora and fauna of our country is similar to.
The flora and fauna of our country is very diverse. It is similar to the fauna of the mainland North America (Canada, USA). Also, the flora and fauna of Russia is similar to the flora and fauna of neighboring countries.
*Think about how to explain the small growth of plants in the tundra and the desire of most plants to spread along the Earth. What tree species form the northern border of the forest in Russia and why?
Small plant growth is explained by harsh climatic conditions and insufficient nutrition, waterlogging. In these conditions, mosses and lichens grow more often. The trees are dwarfed. The flat area and the lack of forests cause an increase in wind speed, so most plants creep along the ground.
The northern border of forests in Russia is formed by cold-resistant conifers - pines and larches.
Questions at the end of the paragraph
1. What is richer in species composition - the flora or fauna of Russia?
In terms of species composition, the fauna is richer.
2. What influences the placement of vegetation?
The placement of vegetation is influenced by natural conditions - climate, soil.
3. What are the main types of vegetation in our country?
The main types of vegetation are the vegetation of the Arctic deserts, tundra, forests, steppes, and deserts.
4. How are animals adapted to life in treeless zones? In the forest?
The animals of treeless territories are, as a rule, small in size; therefore, rodents, birds, and reptiles dominate in deserts and steppes. Animals have camouflage coloration. Large animals - often ungulates - run fast. Forest animals are very diverse. They are adapted to live in tiers in accordance with the tiered plants. Animals have a protective or dismembering coloration, they can run or climb.
