Temperate Deciduous Biome (Mediterranean Climate) Trees with small broad leaves are widely spaced and never very tall. Regions with adequate rainfall are inhabited by low, broad-leafed evergreen trees (mostly evergreen oaks). Fire is an important hazardous factor in this ecosystem, and the adaptation of the plants enable them to regenerate quickly after being burnt. Plants are in a continuous struggle against heat, dry air, excessive evaporation and prolonged droughts. They are, in short xerophytic (drought tolerant). 350 views16:35
