Terrestrial environments refer to land-based ecosystems that include various habitats such as forests, grasslands, deserts, and tundras. These environments are characterized by their unique climate, soil types, and vegetation. Each type of terrestrial environment supports different forms of life, from plants to animals, adapted to thrive in specific conditions. The distribution of terrestrial environments is influenced by factors like latitude, altitude, and precipitation. For example, tropical rainforests, found near the equator, experience high rainfall and warm temperatures, while arctic tundras have cold climates and limited vegetation. Understanding these environments is crucial for conservation and biodiversity efforts.
