Why can grasses live in places that have many fires?
the grass has a lot of roots. The grasses roots grow back fast after a fire.
Why can grasses withstand fire?
Grasses are plants that grow from their bases, that is why mowing your lawn does not hurt the plant. When a fire sweeps across a grassland, it burns off all the grass but leaves the root system and growing crown unharmed (because they are below the fire in the soil). Within a few days new grass leaves sprout form the root crown and the grass recovers. Other species of plant grow from their tips (the growing shoot) and a fire damages this growing tip (which is above ground).
Why can grasses withstand the fires.?
Grasses have the ability to withstand fires due to their adaptations. They have extensive underground root systems that enable them to regrow after a fire. Additionally, their leaves and stems are often low-growing and possess a high moisture content, making them less susceptible to burning. These characteristics allow grasses to survive and even thrive in fire-prone environments.

Why do prairie grasses grow soon after a fire?
Grasses have growth points that are so close to the soil (hidden beneath leaf litter from other grasses) that a fire raging over the grassland doesn't reach this growth point; nor can it. Fire produces more carbon and organic matter, as well as minerals for the grass to grow from, hence the rapid growth after a fire. Also, a fire tends to eradicate all the old growth that the new grasses would have a harder time punching through, increasing the sunlight penetration to these new tillers, and consequently increasing forage growth.
