The table describes the abiotic factors of two biomes.
Factor Biome A Biome B
Temperature hot moderate
Water limited rainfall varying
Sunlight high high
Soil loose and dry moist with abundant nutrients
Which statement about the biotic factors of the biomes is the most reasonable?
(1 point)
A. The plants in Biome A grow taller than the plants in Biome B.
B. Animals in biome A burrow into the loose sand to avoid the heat.
C. The conditions in Biome A are better suited to farming than the conditions in Biome B.
D. Animals in Biome B have thick coats to keep them warm.
The most reasonable statement about the biotic factors of the biomes based on the given abiotic factors would be:
B. Animals in biome A burrow into the loose sand to avoid the heat.
This is because Biome A is described as having hot temperatures, which suggests that animals would need to find ways to escape or protect themselves from the heat. Burrowing into the loose sand would provide a cooler environment for animals in Biome A.
