Deserts

Desertification is the term for the spreading of deserts. It is best known in the Sahel in Africa below the Sahara.

No, the desert willow is not a conifer. It is a deciduous plant. It is a monotypic genus of flowering plants containing the single species Chilopsis linearis.

Southwestern is located in the state of Texas.

Most of Spain has a mild Mediterranean climate.

No, the Svalbard region of Norway is not a desert.

All kinds of water needing animals will use this plant to obtain water. Birds, rodents, and humans.

Yes, besides dates in the Sahara, there are several cacti in the American deserts that produce edible fruit.

Deserts are usually devoid of life, but desert scrubs are abound with wonderfully adapted plants and animals.

The characteristics of a savanna are:

- dominated by grasses and other herbaceous plants

- shrub and tree-sized woody plants

- support a great seasonal abundance of large, migratory mammals, as well as substantial populations of resident animals

No, children that age are still learning to control their actions (ie they know they shouldn't do it but can't stop themselves). I would make her help clean it and explain why it makes you sad and get her to promise not to do it again. Your disappointment can be a real motivation for her not to do it again. Yes that is a good punishment she has to learn that behaviour like that is not acceptable and no desert is a good punishment as you can teach her if she does something you dont want her to do she wont get what she wants even if she is still learning to control her actions then its still okay to teach her how to, i think helping her clean it will make a statement of how important the cleaness of the sofa is to you aswell and will teach her not to do it again. Well done!

In Mexico. A state in fact, is also called Chihuahua as well.

A desert is a region which receives very little rainfall. So generally there is only sparse vegetation. However more important is other factors like the temperature. The Sahara is the world's largest hot desert mainly just looks like lots and lots of sand. Antarctica on the other hand is a cold desert and is mainly covered in snow.So it's quite variable.

As a side note the word desert can be used to describe an area of low or zero population, as in 'desert island'. Thus it could look like anything.

The vast majority of people living in the deserts live in towns and cities where electricity is available to run coolers and refrigerators that are used to preserve food. Those without electricity must rely on methods such as drying or preserving by canning or storing in salt or brine to preserve food from spoiling.

You need to be specific as to the particular desert. Midday temperatures can range from over 100 degrees F. below zero in Antarctica to nearly 150 degrees F. above zero in the Mojave.

No, there are also insects, worms, arachnids, fish, amphibians, birds and mammals.

Organic mater in soil comes primarily from plants - dead leaves, stems, roots, etc. Since deserts do not have a high population of plants, there is little organic material added to the soil.

Yea

Actually, the Arctic is not really a desert. Most of it is sea ice and those parts that do occur on land are tundra which is a distinctly different biome. The Antarctic is a true desert, however.

Well, the entire desert is not really flammable. But the grasses or the types of plants which grow in the desert are highly flammable.

two main ways of life. some people lived a nomadic life moving from place to place. others lived a sedentary, or settled, life in towns.
