Best Answer

The tundra has permafrost because the soil in the tundra is very poor. This is why there are not many trees or plants that grow very tall in the tundra. Permafrost is the top layer of soil that is frozen. Obviously there's permafrost because in the tundra it is very cold and the soil is not very rich.
