AP BIOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The savanna biome, which is a type of grassland biome, consists of areas of open grassland with very few trees. There are two kinds of savannas: tropical and semi-tropical savannas. Grasslands are located on every continent except Antarctica. The largest savannas are located in Africa near the equator.

Detailed explanation-2: -The savanna is home to many large land mammals, including elephants, giraffes, zebras, rhinoceroses, buffalo, lions, leopards, and cheetahs.

Detailed explanation-3: -The Savanna biome is characterized by an extensive cover of grasses with scattered trees. It is a transitional biome between those dominated by forests and those dominated by grasses. The Savanna biome is associated with climates having seasonal precipitation accompanied with a seasonal drought.

Detailed explanation-4: -Savannas are sometimes classified as forests. The predominant vegetation consists of grasses and forbs (small broad-leaved plants that grow with grasses). Different savannas support different grasses due to disparities in rainfall and soil conditions.

Detailed explanation-5: -Many types of grazing mammals are found in the savanna. Grazing animals are animals that eat grass. Grazing animals live there because large amounts of grass covers the land. Zebras, wildebeests, elephants, giraffes, ostriches, gazelles and buffalo are all grazing animals.
