    1.      Africa runs 5 000 miles from the Mediterranean sea all the way down to the Good Hope           cape in south Africa  and 4 600 miles from Cape Verde all the way over to Somalia

    2. Biomes are climate zones and throughout that area, throughout that region , you can see the same average temperature and average precipitation what that means is that you also see very similar plants and animals living in that region.


    3.      The most famous desert in Africa is, of course, the Sahara desert. Now, some parts of the Sahara desert are sandy, like you can see here. Other parts of the Sahara desert are rocky but in either case, the fact that it is very dry is going to make it a very difficult barrier to cross.


    4.      It is not the rain itself that’s particularly important, it’s also the biodiversity .There are many different plants and animals species .That can be found in the rain forest   and that’s one of the thing that makes the rain forest so valuable not just in Africa but throughout the Earth.
