There are camels, frogs, spiders, lizards, jackrabbits, and quite a few more animals. They live in burrows underground and come out at night to avoid heat and plants have adapted to this climate by decreasing the steam size so it can focus on water. Examples of plants in the desert are, wild flowers, cactus, and weathered trees.]]> 2020-09-21 18:42:08 UTC https://padlet.com/emilyerne/38p9b0axr8tzwsra/wish/765618362 7.

cacti- spikes help cacti to protect itself from animals trying to find water.
succulent plants- thick waxy skin to reduce water loss and reflect sunlight. The plants surface roots quickly take a hold of the water and absorb it.]]> 2020-09-21 18:59:10 UTC https://padlet.com/emilyerne/38p9b0axr8tzwsra/wish/765683621 10. 2 animals that have adapted emilyerne https://padlet.com/emilyerne/38p9b0axr8tzwsra/wish/765685700 Desert animals have adapted to the biome by preventing water loss from their body's.
