    " Examine two ways in which human activities have altered the natural characteristics of a
    biome that you have studied"

    I'm doing human interaction (burning off fossil fuels and acid rain, etc) with the Coniferous Forest Biome in Sweden from the exam skills book. How would i adapt that sample answer to this question? Would it just be

    1. the effect of acid rain on soils & vegetation
    2. the effect of acid rain on rivers, lake, waterways

    or are they asking for two human activites?

    thanks!

    2008 = Examine 2 ways in which human activities have altered the natural characteristics of a biome that you have studied.

    the marking schemes says it gives marks for 3 or 4 aspects......

    so what do i write ??
    do i just ignore the "2 ways" or do i try push the 4 headings into 2 headings

    Would the answer not include either deforestation or over grazing

    don't think they do that in sweden, forests there are considered "green gold", used to have a gross intake of 495 million euro before acid rain affected tree growth and reproduction. (yes! i remembered something from my essay!)
