Plants & animals in the wetlandsPlants include hydrophytes, reeds,
mushrooms, and lichenAnimals include Crocodiles, cotton mouth
snakes, frogs, alligator snapping turtles, and more
Animal classes in the wetlandsThe wetlands house many animals most of
witch are reptiles such as Crocodiles, snakes, and alligator snapping turtles.
Example of a wetlands food web
ZoologistAnimal adaptations
Symbiotic relationships
The alligator snapping turtle has special adaptations that help it hunt and to defend it has a small worm like tongue that lures fish into it’s mouth and a jaw strength of 2,000 psi (pounds per square inch).
The most commonly seen symbiotic relationship in this biome is parasitism and the most commonly seen parasite are leaches, that suck the blood from predators.
Geographer Where in the world
is this biomeWetlands are
scattered all over the world except Antarctica.
Most of them are in Great Britain and the U.S.A
Biome elevationSome can be an
elevation of 10,0000.Some are in the
mountains.
GeographerLand forms
The wetlands is a basin were the ground is depressed or along the ground.
The soil in this biome is full of nutrients for under water plants to grow.
meteorologistBiomes climate like Average precipitation
The hot and humid climate is because of the amount of precipitation and change in climate.
The amount of rainfall a wetland receives depends on it’s location.
In southeast Asia there is heavy rainfall ranging from 100 to 200 (inches) and the average of 15 (centimeters)
meteorologistAverage temperature Water recoursesWetlands in the Arabian
Peninsula temperatures can reach up to 50 degrees (Celsius)/122 degrees ferenhieght
The water resources for wetlands fresh water surface including rivers, swamps, and lakes.
BotanistPlant reproduction Succession typesPollination is the process
reproduction. Dying reeds cause the
w3ater to become dense and slow moving. As more plants die matter forms and it becomes a wetland
BotanistWhat are the native plants
The growing seasonNative plants include
trees, and aquatic plants that have to tolerate being under water for a long time.
The growing season depends on the weather.
