Can someone help with biomes??

Question

What biomes might you go through if you were going up a big mountain? What about just driving from Florida to Virginia, as in north to south? Why?

Answer 1

Biomes are plant community assemblages influenced by soils, elevation, aspect, and precipitation/moisture availability. Often biomes when going up a mountain (increasing elevation) mimic those on a south-north gradient. You would probably go through grassland, shrub/scrub, woodland, deciduous forest, and coniferous forests (and alpine meadows if the mountain was high enough) going up a mountain, and similar biomes south to north.
Plants grow in certain habitats because they are adapted to certain abiotic factors: certain levels of nutrients in the soil, temperature ranges, sunlight levels, moisture availability. Increasing elevation means the temperature and moisture are similar to an increase in latitude (going north): it's colder and there is less water (and that water is more often coming as snow).

Answer 2

Biomes in that region are Coniferous forests. (fl and virginia)
It depends on what mountains you are talking about and in what area. Overall in Florida and Virginia the answer is above.
