What are the three major factors that impact the type of biome that will exist in a given area? What will be an ideal response?


The two most important factors would be precipitation and temperature. In general, warm and wet
climates will support more productive biomes and cool and dry biomes will be the least productive. In
addition, the type of soil present is important as this will impact both nutrient availability and water
retention.
