Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

In 2008, the concept of anthropogenic biomes were articulated. These are based on human-altered ecosystems and are an attempt to more accurately portray the terrestrial biosphere (actual vegetation as compared to potential vegetation). These biomes result from ongoing human interaction within an ecosystem. They link land-use practices, such as agriculture, forestry, and urbanization to the biome concept. The concept of the anthropogenic biome is not to replace the terrestrial biome classification, rather offer a different perspective.

Students' answers will vary on the anthropogenic biome in their area.
