question 3 points 2 which of the following is/are true about tundra biome? summer is short in tundra biome. the temperature in tundra biome is 30°f during winter. the precipitation in tundra biome is 100 cm per year. the surface of the ice layer melts during winter in tundra biome.
Brief Explanations
- Analyze "Summer is short in tundra biome": Tundra biomes have very short summers (usually a few weeks) as they are in high - latitude or high - altitude regions with long, cold winters. This statement is true.
- Analyze "The temperature in tundra biome is 30°F during winter": Tundra winter temperatures are much colder, often well below 0°F (e.g., - 30°F to - 40°F or lower), so 30°F is too warm. This statement is false.
- Analyze "The precipitation in tundra biome is 100 cm per year": Tundra is a dry biome with low precipitation, usually less than 25 cm per year. 100 cm is too high (more like a temperate rainforest). This statement is false.
- Analyze "The surface of the ice layer melts during winter in tundra biome": In winter, tundra is extremely cold, and the ice layer does not melt; melting occurs in the short summer. This statement is false.
