False. Under normal conditions plants have to survive with little rainfall in a desert.
The saguaro cactus is the largest cactus in the United States. It occurs primarily in Arizona and parts of northern Mexico.
South Dakota has large areas of semiarid grasslands but no true deserts.
The Kalahari and Namib Deserts are both present in Namibia.
Kansas has some semiarid regions but no true deserts.
Well the Gobi and the Taklimakan deserts are in Asia.. Saudi Arabia is basically a desert. And the poles are cold deserts. Hope this helped :)
Yes.
no it does not need large amounts of water to survive
Plants in arid environments like deserts or semi-arid regions must store large amounts of water to survive long periods of drought. This adaptation allows them to withstand the lack of regular rainfall and maintain their internal processes during water scarcity.
Nuclear power plants require huge amounts of water for cooling, a resource not available in large quantities in most deserts. However, your question is not completely true as there are nuclear power plants in the desert. Palo Verde in Arizona is an example.
Desert biomes can have both large and small plants. Large plants in deserts, like cacti and Joshua trees, are adapted to store water and survive in arid conditions. Small plants, such as shrubs and grasses, have shallow roots to quickly absorb water after rare rainfall events. Both types of plants have evolved various adaptations to thrive in desert environments.
Kereru birds can survive in the forest by using their wide Gape to enable it to eat large amounts of food and large peices of food
Large numbers of numbers cannot survive on land covered with Ice, Deserts, or high Mountains.
The arctic and antarctic are technicaly deserts as they have no fresh water and seals spend a lot of time out of the water so they can and do survive in deserts.
Epiphytes survive in the forest canopy by attaching to large trees,usually in the crooks of branches where water can collect.
to cool the heating rods and generate electricity
Both small and large amounts of light reaching Earth are absorbed by plants through the process of photosynthesis. Plants use sunlight to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose, a form of energy that they can use for growth and development. So, all light absorbed by plants is valuable for their survival and functioning.
There was a very large amount of slavery in Mesopotamia. This was because, in the deserts of Mesopotamia (modern day Iraq), for people to survive and allow their farms to thrive the various nations had to use massive amounts of labour in the creation of irrigation systems. Thus, it was extremely beneficial for nations to force others to work for them.
