9) List these biomes in order from the greatest to least diversity (temperate deciduous forest, tropical rain forest, temperate rain forest).

The biomes in order from the greatest to least diversity will be tropical rainforest, temperate deciduous forest, and temperate rainforest.

Tropical rainforests refer to the rainforests that occur in areas that have no dry season.

The temperate deciduous forest refers to a biome that always changes. It has seasons such as winter, spring, summer, and fall.

Temperate rainforest refers to the broadleaf or coniferous forests that receive heavy rain. This condition supports ferns, shrubs, etc.

It should be noted that the biome with the greatest diversity is tropical rainforest while the least is the temperate rainforest.

I'm not too sure if the temperate forest is more diverse than the rainforest, so sorry if I'm wrong. Tropical rainforests are the most diverse because of the humidity, which is water. The water helps the soil stay healthy, which makes more plants, which makes more animals and insects.

I hope this helps! Good luck!

step 1: nitrogen fixation- conversion of atmospheric no₂ into forms useful to plants by lightning, bacteria, and cyanobacteria.

step 2: nitrification-process of converting ammonia to nitrite or nitrate.

step 3: assimilation-plant roots absorb new form of nitrogen.

step 4: ammonification-conversion of organic nitrogen to ammonia by bacteria involved in decomposition.

step 5: denitrification-bacteria turns the decomposed matter back into n₂o, which is released into atmosphere; repeat cycle.
