Plants that survive with little rainfall in the Sahara Desert include acacia trees, palms, succulents, spiny shrubs, and grasses that have adapted to the arid conditions. These plants grow lower to the ground to prevent water loss by winds, store water in thick stems, and have long, horizontal roots that seek out water sources.
Sahara desert, and Antarctica (yes it's a desert because it receives little rainfall)
A desert can be hot or cold. A desert is classified as a place that receives little to no rainfall.
The desert receives little rainfall that would normally dissolve and wash away minerals.
The plant survives because it stores the rainfall and uses little amounts so it can stay alive.
Both are deserts that receive little precipitation each year. The Sahara is a hot desert whie the Antarctic is a cold desert.

No, the rain forests account for much of Africa's rainfall. The Namib Desert and Sahara receive little rain.
A DESERT. e.g. Sahara Desert Gobi Desert Kalahari Desert Mojave Desert Atacama Desert.
The Sahara desert is an area that has high temperatures during the day and little rainfall and poor soil.
A region with little or no rainfall is typically referred to as a desert. Deserts are characterized by arid conditions, receiving very low amounts of precipitation, often less than 250 millimeters (10 inches) annually. Examples include the Sahara Desert in Africa and the Atacama Desert in South America.
Deserts receive little rainfall.
it gets little rainfall because it is a desert
There are many arid climates on the earth. An arid climate receives very little rainfall. The large deserts of the world like the Sahara, Gobi and Great Sandy deserts are all arid climates. Antarctica is another arid climate, it is the worlds largest cold desert. In the US, Death Valley, California receives less than two inches of rain a year.
There are many plants that are adapted to living in deserts. They are called xerophytes - plants able to survive with little rainfall.
The Sahara Desert
A climate that is drier than the Sahara Desert would be extremely arid, with very little rainfall and high temperatures. It would likely have sparse vegetation and limited water sources, making it a harsh and challenging environment for living organisms.
