Activity: Climatograms Objective: Climatograms show monthly variations in only two climatic factors, precipitation and temperature. Other factors
also affect climate, but a climatogram gives a rough idea of the climate in a particular area. By daily observation you can
associate the climate with the biome of your own locality. This investigation allows you to study the worldwide
relationships between climates and biomes. Refer to the pictures and descriptions of biomes to help you visualize the
relationships between biotic and abiotic factors in some of the earth's major biomes.
Procedure: Use the data in the following tables to make climatograms for the associated unknown biomes. Once graphed,
try to distinguish what biome each is. Write your suggested biome on top of each graph. Then answer the questions.

Biologists use the system of binomial nomenclature developed by linnaeus to assign scientific names to known living organisms which area of society or strengthened by money is contribution to science

Amale bird-of-paradise uses a dance to attract mates in which it flaps its tail feathers on the ground and jumps around a potential female mate. a different male bird-of-paradise does a similar dance but it jumps around the female in the opposite direction. the female bird is only attracted to one style of dance, in one direction. this is an example of speciation.

What evidence could be used to convince policy makers to change a shipping lane from going through a whale breeding ground? information on the number of all whale species currently alive information on the number of all whales hit by boats in the given area information on the number of whale deaths in the world's oceans information on the number of whale offspring born every year. (a) scientists could collect and combine data on fish populations all around the world to show that their populations are declining. (b) scientists collect and combine data on fish populations all around the world to show that their populations are increasing. (c) scientists work together and use past data to show that fish populations are becoming locally extinct in some areas. (d) scientists work together and use past data to show that some fish populations are adapting to environmental changes.
