Assignment Biome Map
Use the following world map from Microsoft Paint and color in where the biomes of the world are located. You will need to open the following bitmap file into Microsoft Paint. You do not need to be precise when coloring, but you need to show me about where each biome is located by using different colors on the map and a key that displays what each color stands for. Again, you do not need to be exact (coloring in the lines), but it is very important to know where the worlds biomes are and how the different climates of the world affect what biomes are there.
