They are in dry continental or subtropical areas like North American or South American where they are known as "pampas". Being in the area it is in , grasslands are dry because they are not near oceans.]]> 2020-09-16 18:29:50 UTC https://padlet.com/ericsanders3/lfsbnscm0skicyjz/wish/752830674 ericsanders3 https://padlet.com/ericsanders3/lfsbnscm0skicyjz/wish/752905938 In this biome, the types of plants you'll find are Buffalo Grass, Crazy Weed,  Asters, Blazing Stars, Cone flowers, Golden rods, Clover, and Wild Indigos; all for animals like Buffalo, Giraffe, Canadian Geese and other animals to eat.]]> 2020-09-16 18:49:12 UTC https://padlet.com/ericsanders3/lfsbnscm0skicyjz/wish/752905938 ericsanders3 https://padlet.com/ericsanders3/lfsbnscm0skicyjz/wish/755007713 2020-09-17 13:08:07 UTC https://padlet.com/ericsanders3/lfsbnscm0skicyjz/wish/755007713 ericsanders3 https://padlet.com/ericsanders3/lfsbnscm0skicyjz/wish/764784061 In the Grasslands, plants such as Buffalo Grass, or Bermuda grass have roots that adapted to the environment and are able to grow back very quickly after a fire. The plants that are adapted have long roots to get water to survive when the biome is dry. 
The deep roots in the grasslands is the main adaptation on being able to receive nutrients and grow back. It's like the plants in the grassland are made to live in this heat and climate.]]> 2020-09-21 15:50:52 UTC https://padlet.com/ericsanders3/lfsbnscm0skicyjz/wish/764784061 ericsanders3 https://padlet.com/ericsanders3/lfsbnscm0skicyjz/wish/765731784 The Grasslands have threats also such as habitat loss or lack of agriculture. Lack of agriculture can lead to animal endangerment; especially buffalo. Humans are a part of the threats in certain ways such as overgrazing or crop clearing.]]> 2020-09-21 19:12:47 UTC https://padlet.com/ericsanders3/lfsbnscm0skicyjz/wish/765731784 ericsanders3 https://padlet.com/ericsanders3/lfsbnscm0skicyjz/wish/769605400 The Grasslands topography is flat and rolling, no mountains and a few hills. It is 2,850 m above sea level. In the area the grasslands are located, insolation is somewhat high. It is mostly hot and dry, leading to fires in the grasslands.]]> 2020-09-22 18:36:28 UTC https://padlet.com/ericsanders3/lfsbnscm0skicyjz/wish/769605400 ericsanders3 https://padlet.com/ericsanders3/lfsbnscm0skicyjz/wish/769634465 In the graph below, as you can see, the Grasslands receive a good amount of precipitation throughout the year while the temperature average is about 20 degrees celsius. ]]> 2020-09-22 18:43:18 UTC https://padlet.com/ericsanders3/lfsbnscm0skicyjz/wish/769634465 ericsanders3 https://padlet.com/ericsanders3/lfsbnscm0skicyjz/wish/769636919 The buffalo is adapted to the Grasslands mainly because of the grass. Its like the grass never dries out making it possible for buffalo to eat no matter what. Another adaptation it has is its horns, they help when they need to protect themselves from animals like bobcats. Bobcats adapt to the grasslands by being camouflage and having ears made to pick up little sounds. Another characteristic they have is claw retraction; their claws are for catching prey and climbing trees when needed to.]]> 2020-09-22 18:43:55 UTC https://padlet.com/ericsanders3/lfsbnscm0skicyjz/wish/769636919 ericsanders3 https://padlet.com/ericsanders3/lfsbnscm0skicyjz/wish/769640198 The biomass changes because the next organism doesn't receive all of the energy/nutrients from what the ate; They only receive 10% of it.]]> 2020-09-22 18:44:44 UTC https://padlet.com/ericsanders3/lfsbnscm0skicyjz/wish/769640198
