Ecological zones

Ecological zones are regions of the Earth characterized by distinct combinations of climate, plant life, and animal species. These zones develop based on factors like temperature, rainfall, and soil type, creating unique habitats such as forests, deserts, grasslands, and tundras. Each zone supports specific ecosystems and biodiversity, helping scientists classify and study the planet’s varied environments. Understanding ecological zones aids in conservation, land use planning, and assessing how different areas respond to climate change.
