Answer:
The type of biome that is made up of scattered grasses and small tress and shrubs is called the savannah. The ecosystem consisting of small community of plants and animal on a large piece of land is is called a biome.
Because the tress are small and scattered this enable the grasses to thrive in the savannah. They are located in the hot and warm climate across the world with the annual rainfall of 50.79 to 127 cm per year. This is estimated t be about 100 '' of rainfall per year .This is fall within certain months, and there may be fire outbreaks when the rain stops or in droughts.
Therefore lack of moisture is the features of the savannah. Plants and animals in this terrestrial biome must develop adaptive features for water conservation to survive with little exposure of the to heat and sunlight to prevent excessive dehydration.
The plants have narrow leaves to reduce the surface area to volume ratio exposed for transpiration and evaporation of moisture
some have underground stem and root for storing starch and water.
Cactus is an example of plant with thick stem to conserve water ,and spikes to prevent been eaten by herbivores
The animals have good stamina to withstand dehydration, and are less active duding the day to conserve body water, and do reduce exposure to the hot and arid environment.
Elephants has wrinkle skin to reduce water loss ,and large ears to dissipate heat.
