• Areas with the same BIOME can have a different BIOGEOGRAPHY!
What if it’s ISOLATED?
• Areas with the same BIOME can have a different BIOGEOGRAPHY!
• Only Australia has MARSUPIALS.
Let’s see what we know…
Which are you ready to answer, and which do you need a peek?Where would the vegetations and soils of tropical regions be located?
F low latitudes
G middle latitudes
H high latitudes
J polar regions
Australia's unique biogeography is probably the result of —F climateG isolationH biodiversityJ trade exchanges
