Do grasslands receive little rain and have many types of trees or grasses?

It depends on the location. Not all grasslands are created equal. Parts of the world have grasslands that do receive less rain than others, and other areas receive significant amounts of rain. But most of these areas receive their rain in irregular, intermittent periods of either a very light rain or heavy torrential downpours, followed by extended dry periods. Grasslands are particularly adapted to these climatic extremes, unlike forests or trees. Many grasslands will have a wide variety of species of grasses and forbs (wildflowers). Some will have trees and shrubs, but most of the trees and shrubs that are found in grasslands are found near rivers or semi-permanent to permanent water bodies.
