Biospheres, also known as biomes, are essential ecosystems that support the diversity of life on earth. Synonyms for biospheres include ecological systems, habitats, environments, and natural regions. Biogeographic zones, bioclimatic areas, and bioregions are also used to refer to regions of the world with distinct climates and geographies that support unique plant and animal life. Biomes can be further categorized into terrestrial, aquatic, and hybrid ecosystems, such as wetlands, coral reefs, and estuaries. Understanding the complex interactions between different biospheres and their inhabitants is critical to preserving biodiversity, managing natural resources, and mitigating human impact on the environment.
