Desert

// Thats Hot Travel Agency!!! // Plants Climate  Desert Background: Deserts take up approximately one-fifth of Earth's land mass. The majority of deserts are in the Arabian Peninsula, Australia, The Americas, North and South Africa, India and Pakistan. The largest of all the deserts is the Sahara, it takes up 3.5 million square miles. The basic characteristics that make deserts identifiable to most people is the extreme temperatures often times reaching more than 100 degrees during the day, and plummeting to below 50 degrees at night, and not to forget how dry they are. The wettest of deserts gets no more than 10 inches of rain per year.  Although the desert's weather is rather extreme, that doesn't stop plants and animals from thriving here. After years of adaptation to this difficult environment, the species that are found here can be easily called survival experts. Although you wont find much of a canopy in the desert you will find a variety of ground hugging plant species. The animals aren't easily found either as many of them burrow into the ground to escape the direct sunlight, or only come out at night.
