A biome is an area classified according to the species that live in that location. Temperature range, soil type, and the amount of light and water are unique to a particular place and form the niches for specific species allowing scientists to define the biome.
Freshwater biomes cover only about 2.5% of the Earth's surface but are home to more than 40% of all species of fish. Lakes and ponds are standing water bodies, while rivers and streams are flowing, with each type providing distinct habitats that support different forms of life.
Water current pervades every facet of existence for life in lotic (flowing water) habitats. Maintaining position in the face of flow can be energetically costly, but provides access to a...
