Explanation:
<em><u>ROTATION.</u></em>
The Earth's movement through space affects life on Earth. We experience day and night because of this movement on the Earth's axis known as rotation. It takes the Earth 24 hours to rotate one time in which we experience day and night. The Earth's axis is an invisible line that intersects the Earth through both the North and South Poles.
<em><u>REVOLUTION.</u></em>
The Earth moves along a path around the Sun. This path is known as an orbit. One complete trip on this path around the sun is known as a revolution. It takes the Earth 365 1/4 days to complete it's journey around the Sun.
Every 4 years, we take the extra 1/4 days from the previous years, combine them and add an extra day to the calendar called leap year i.e 29th of February.
In conclusion, the counterclockwise rotation of planet earth around its own axis is defined as Earth Rotation. The earth rotates about the line called "the axis of rotation," an imaginary line that passes through the North and South Poles of the planet, which the earth rotates about. Earth rotates once in about 24 hours with respect to the Sun, from West to East.
The earth rotation and revolution gives rise to the following phenomenon;
a. Day and night.
b. Seasons such as summer, winter, autumn, etc.
c. Creation of heat zones and ocean currents.

Answer:
a. short grasses and cacti
Explanation:
The semi-arid and arid areas in the western part of the United States are harsh environments, and only specialized plants for these conditions can survive. The climate is hot and dry, the precipitation very low, and the soil is poor. The plants that survive in these places have adapted well to survive with very little water, to manage to extract water from the air, to preserve it, and being able to sustain very high temperatures. The short grasses are the dominant plants int he semi arid regions. They do not require rich soil, nor lot of water, so they manage to survive on the bear minimum that is available. The trademark plants of the arid areas are the cacti. The cacti are able to store large amounts of water in them, have very long roots, are able to extract water from the air through their needles, and also have skin that doesn't allow any water to come out of it.
