Clues

  • A community of organisms where each member is eaten by another member (4, 5)
  • A system of animals, plants and bacteria and it interrelated chemical and physical environment (9)
  • Dead Plants condense life and releases a few 100 seeds in its last act. Can wait lifeless for 1-20 years until rain - plant grow can happen in 2-3 weeks of plant growth. Urgent need for pollenation to reproduce seeds. (6, 7)
  • Deciduous Forest - are replenished with nutrients by leaf litter which accumulates in autumn (5, 5, 4)
  • Occurs when the water in the soil evaporates in high temperatures, drawing up salts from the the soil to the surface. These salts are toxic to many plants and makes land unusable (12)
  • Place that maintains the environment in a sustainable way, it also involves local people in making decisions that affect their land and living (10)
  • Plants that can survive in dry environments (10)
  • The roots are mainly above because the soil above is infertile (roots can grow 30 feet). It provides stability for emergent trees. (8, 5)
  • Tropical Rainforest - are red or yellowish in colour and have a thick litter layer but a thin humus layer (7, 4)
  • Water Storage - green succulent leaves/bloated branches. Branches - white powder reflects heat, thick vines with few pores (reduces evaporation). Trunk - self amputation so it cuts off and fills the stump so water is not lost via respiration (6, 5)
