Summary:
There are two subgroups of tundra, arctic and alpine. The arctic tundra contains various species such as polar bear, arctic foxes, birds, and plants as well. The alpine tundra contains birds, insects, mammals, and plant life. Organisms living in the arctic tundra experience an extremely cold climate. Organisms have adapted over time to withstand the harsh climate through natural selection. The tundra has a low biotic diversity. Predator prey relationships play a major role throughout the tundra such as the wolf and caribou relationship. There are some endangered species such as the polar bear living throughout the tundra. Human impact has been a huge influence on the tundra and has caused the population of some species to decrease. The water cycle is a main role in the tundra and is generated throughout the tundra.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, tundras are among Earth's coldest, harshest biomes. Tundra ecosystems are treeless regions found in the Arctic and on the tops of mountains, where the climate is cold and windy and rainfall is scant. Tundra lands are snow-covered for much of the year, until summer brings a burst of wildflowers. It is home to many animals such as the arctic hair, arctic wolf, polar bears, arctic fox, and many more. Scientist expect the tundra’s temperatures to drop and the permafrost to melt within the next few years due to global warming. Shifts in distribution and an abundance of northern species migrating into the tundra also are future concerns.
