Yes, due to the very low humidity, deserts experience more evaporation than precipitation.
Clouds do not precipitate in deserts primarily due to low humidity. Deserts have very dry air with low moisture content, which limits the formation of rain clouds. The low humidity prevents sufficient condensation of water vapor in the atmosphere to form clouds that can produce precipitation.
Every desert has distinct climate statistics. There is not a single answer that fits all deserts. You need to specify a particular location.
The Earth's temperature depends on the location. The coldest temperature can be as low as -89° C in Antarctica and the highest can be 57.7° C in the deserts.
Deserts and tundras are both characterized by extreme environmental conditions with limited vegetation cover. They also have low precipitation levels and experience temperature extremes, with deserts being hot and tundras being cold. Additionally, both ecosystems have adapted plants and animals that are specialized to survive in these harsh environments.
1.) Low precipitation2.) Limited plant life 3.) Temperature extremes
Freeze-thaw cycles are unlikely to happen in deserts because the temperature in deserts typically does not drop low enough to freeze water. Additionally, deserts tend to be dry, so there is often limited moisture available to form ice. This combination of low temperatures and low moisture levels makes freeze-thaw cycles uncommon in desert environments.
All deserts are 'water thirsty.' That is why they are called deserts - they are arid regions that experience low rainfall. The Thar is no exception. If it received more rainfall it would cease to be a desert.

No, deserts or parts of deserts can be several thousand feet in elevation.
"Cold Deserts temperature in winter ranges from -2 to 4° C and in the summer 21 to 26° C a year"Quoted from http://www.blueplanetbiomes.org/desert.htmYou can find more info there :)
No. Height varies widely. There is even a formal division between high deserts (above 2,000 ft) and low deserts.
