    My favorite biome was tropical ocean because I enjoyed learning that it takes 100 years for a coral reef to grow.

    This was a awesome web surf! My favorite biome is the tundra. Something I learned is that the tundra is not at both poles but only at the north pole!

    A cause for the increase in minnow and invert population is if the perch (or other predator) is affected, decreasing the population, causing the minnows to not be eaten so much so their population grows. :)

    If the minnows decreases that means that the population of the algae and inverts increase because they are not eaten by the minnows.
