Biomas terrestres: la tundra

The video explores the tundra biome, focusing on the Arctic tundra and the tundralpina region. It describes the harsh climate conditions, the limited growing season, and the adaptations of plants and animals to survive. The Arctic tundra is characterized by permafrost and a short growing season, while the tundralpina region, found at high altitudes, has a longer growing season but less carbon dioxide for photosynthesis. Despite the cold and wind, life thrives in these regions through various adaptations.
