Answer:

Sun is too hot the climate is too dry

Explanation:

Deserts are characterized by presence of very hot and dry climatic conditions.  The plant species found in deserts have morphological and behavioral adaptations to withstand the unfavorable growth conditions. Since only a few plant species have adaptations to cope up with extremes of temperatures and water scarcity, few plants can survive in a desert.
