Detailed explanation-1: -Desert biomes are the driest of all the biomes. In fact, the most important characteristic of a desert is that it receives very little rainfall. Most deserts receive less than 300 mm a year compared to rainforests, which receive over 2, 000 mm.
Detailed explanation-2: -The northernmost biome, known as tundra, typically has little precipitation, a short growing season, and permafrost. The tundra biome is distributed far north in North America, Europe, and Russia about 60∘ North latitude. The soil remains frozen most of the year (permafrost) with very little rainfall (precipitation).
Detailed explanation-3: -The tropical rainforest biome gets the highest precipitation or rainfall annually. Most regions get at least 200 cm to about 430 cm rain annually. Deserts and tundra get the least amount of precipitation. Taiga gets a higher amount of precipitation, of about 30-75 cm.
