country covered with grass, especially one used for grazing.

Climate & Sunlight In the grasslands, the average
temperature in January is 20° and 70° in July. The Annual precipitation is 10-30 inches.
In the summer, it is humid and warm. In the winter, the weather is pretty cold.
Sunlight is a key factor. The sun gives energy to the plants and
animals in grasslands.

Competition and Symbiosis Bumble Bee and Flower (Mutualism): The bumblebee gains nectar, and the
flower gets pollinated. Mites and Beetle (Commensalism): The mites gain a transport to other food
sources. the beetle is not disturbed by the mites.

Adaptations Lots of grasses are wind pollinated and
are well-suited to the exposed, windy conditions of the grasslands.
Soft stems enable prairie grasses to bend in the wind. Narrow leaves minimize water loss.

Fun Facts Grasslands are usually found between
deserts and forests. True prairies and grasslands are
becoming harder and harder to find. Many people burn grasslands to extend
the area. No other habitat for humans is as useful
as grasslands.

Review Grasslands are wide, open lands with an
abundance of grass covering the surface.
Grasslands have little trees, if any. They make habitats for an abundance of
animals and wildlife. There mare many instances of
symbiosis in grasslands. The sun is at the top of the food web, as
always.
