Why is it very difficult for trees and shrubs to grow in a
temperate grassland?
In temperate grasslands, grasses dominate the place. Large trees and shrubs are rarely common in these biomes due to the low moderate precipitation which makes these grasslands a difficult place for tall plants such as woody shrubs and trees to grow.
Why might the winters be cooler in a short grassland compared
to a tall grassland?
Tall grasslands provide more warmth and protection.
How does the climate of a temperate grassland affect the types
of animals and vegetation that can live and grow there?
Increasingly severe and frequent droughts, floods, fires, and hurricanes are likely to affect U.S. grassland ecosystems. Drought exacerbates soil erosion and aquifer depletion. Greater variability in precipitation will favor more frequent fires, which can reduce encroachment of woody plants into grasslands.
