Steppes, pampas, savannahs, prairies--all are names for the grasslands that are found on most continents. Uses the American prairie to highlight characteristics of grasslands, different kinds of grasses, and examples of plant and animal life. Notes humans' impact on this biome.
Explores the open savannahs of Africa, particularly the mammals that inhabit them and the trees that border the grasslands. Shows how the different animals interact with each other and the non-living elements of their habitat to maintain a healthy balance. Also investigates the threat from an increasing human population for homes, food, other resources, and the resultant threat to the survival of many animal groups. Looks at international breeding programs around the world, which were established to protect these animals and enable them to reproduce in captivity, so their gene pool is preserved.
Why are habitats important? Students journey around the globe to explore the tundra, deserts, grasslands, forests, and waterways and learn about the plants and animals that live there. Part of the Real World Science series.
Surveys soil's formation, composition, properties, types, and movement. Also identifies the five major plant communities: tundra, forests, scrublands, grasslands, and deserts. The connection between soils and vegetation affects where people live.
In this program, viewers will travel the world and learn about the diversity of plants throughout the various land regions around the world. Graphics, animation, and live-action footage will assist students in identifying characteristics of various habitats on Earth. Students will learn how plants have adapted to live in polar regions, tundra, desert, grasslands, forests, and salt and freshwater habitats. Part of the "Way Cool Science" series.
