On the bad side, the presence of mountains only amplifies the previous negatives with developing desert and jungle biomes.

从不利一面来看，山脉存在只会扩大之前发展沙漠和丛林生物群落不利因素。

And plants are a major part of nearly every single biome.

That came at a price, however. Almost half of the original biome has been destroyed.

然，这是要付出代价。几乎一半原始生物群已经被摧毁。

Okay, that's better — with biomes, the largest units that ecologists use to describe the plant life of different locations.

好吧，这就更好了——生物群落，生态学家用来描述不同区植物生命大单位。

It's made up of different ecological regions, or biomes, where communities of organisms are adapted to specific climate conditions.

它由不同生态区域或生物群落组成，生物群落适应特定气候条件。

The nodules are a core part of a biome roughly the size of the Amazon rain forest, she notes.

她指出，这些结核是一个大致相当于亚马逊雨林大小生物群落核心部分。

Each biome contains multiple ecosystems, and all but the most frigid arctic regions are supported by plants.

每个生物群落都包含多个生态系统，除了寒冷极区外，所有区都由植物支撑。

To discover new blocks, new biomes, new ways of looking at the world.

这是我们每天都在肚子里携带巨大生物群落。

Freshwater biomes include rivers and streams, ponds and lakes, and wetlands.

淡水生物群落包括河流和溪流、池塘和湖泊以及湿。

But no matter how many biomes there are, plants have important roles to fill in them.

但无论有多少生物群系，植物都扮演着重要角色。

They're only a few meters thick, but they support all agriculture and every single terrestrial biome.

它们只有几米厚，但它们支撑着所有农业和每一个陆生物群落。
