The correct options that differentiate the taiga from other forest ecosystems are:

1. **The taiga is abundant in coniferous trees.**
2. **The taiga gets less rainfall than the other ecosystems.**

The taiga, also known as the boreal forest, is characterized primarily by its coniferous trees (such as pines, firs, and spruces) and typically has a relatively low amount of precipitation compared to temperate deciduous forests. It is not abundant in deciduous trees and generally receives less rainfall than more temperate forest ecosystems.
