Your task is to: (http://www.blueplanetbiomes.org/climate.htm)
1. Describe the locations of the major climatic zones and vegetation zones using zones of latitude and/or longitude (e.g., latitudes north of 55° N), and by describing the locations relative to countries or continents (e.g., the northern part of Canada; east coast of Australia;).
2. Assign the correct climate graph to each climate zone.
4. Describe each climate zone in detail (at least 3 key words).
5. Describe flora and fauna of different climate zones (table 2)
5. ADDITIONAL: find 2 representative pictures for each climate and vegetation zone!
