Lewis and Clark Animal Discoveries. The Lewis and Clark expedition resulted in the discovery or observation of more than 300 plants and animals. Below is a sampling of those discovered. All excerpts are taken from the actual journals of Lewis and Clark during their three year expedition. Grizzly Bear.
A biome /ËbaÉªoÊm/ is a formation of plants and animals that have common characteristics due to similar climates and can be found over a range of continents.iomes are defined by climate regimes and biogeography. A 1978 study on North American grasslands found a positive logistic correlation between evapotranspiration in mm/yr and above-ground net primary production in g/m 2 /yr.
Biomes are a way to divide the Earth's surface. These divisions are based on climate patterns, soil types, and the animals and plants that inhabit an area. There are biomes on dry land and in water. Every inch of the Earth's surface is a part of one or more biomes. There are a couple of different ways to look at the number of biomes. Some like to divide biomes into five basic types: aquatic, forest, desert, tundra, and grassland. These five types of biomes can be further divided by differences in seasons or animal and plant species. Aquatic Biome The aquatic biome consists of any part of Earth that is covered with water. This includes freshwater and salt water.
