evolution

The graph for biome 1 shows seasonal variation, with the winters having below freezing temperatures and the summers ranging in temperatures between 20-30 degrees celsius.  The biome on this new planet has slightly warmer summers than this earth biome but follows a similar pattern. This biome also has more rainfall on average than earth but again, has a similar seasonal pattern. You would expect this biome to be located around 30-50 degrees latitude. On earth, this type of biome is found mostly in the northern hemisphere because the southern hemisphere lacks the landmass needed, however, since we don’t know of any land differences between the northern and southern hemisphere of this planet, it can be expected in both hemispheres. You would also expect to find plants with deciduous leaves, so they loose their leaves in the sub freezing winters. Because there is such variety seasonally, the plants would likely be well adapted to seasonal change. On earth, you find maple, birch and many other types of trees so you might find similar trees in this new biome. There is more rainfall as well so it might be expected to contain larger trees.
