Answer:

Deserts

Explanation:

A desert is a region on the earth surface with little to no rainfall all year round. Deserts also experience a wide range of temperatures daily. During the day, temperature is very high, at night, temperature falls rapidly and it is cold.

These extremes of conditions coupled with some other factors makes deserts badlands for plant growth. The soil is very lose here and contains little to no nutrients. Organic matter is non-existent due to low biodiversity.

Plants that grow in such conditions are called xerophytes. An example is cactus. They have evolved to survive and adapt to such extremes of conditions.

Examples of such deserts around the world are Sahara desert, Namib desert, Atacama desert, Kalahari desert etc.

Answer:

Desert

Explanation:

A desert is a vast dry area of land that can only support distinct vegetation. The plants that live here are adapted to the limited availability of water supply since it only receives little rainfall each year (about 250 mm a year). Temperatures in this type of biome are high so the evaporation and transpiration rate is a lot higher as well. The plants are distributed widely in this type of land, which is ideal to decrease competition for water among them.
