A) It is very easy for the predators to locate their prey in the grass. Therefore, to protect themselves from being predated, the herbivores like the deer, zebra etc are adapted to running fast to protect themselves from being predated. Thus, speed is important for survival in the grasslands for animals that live there
B ) Desert plants lose very little water through transpiration. The leaves in desert plants are either absent, very small, or they are present in the shape of spines. This helps in reducing loss of water from the leaves through transpiration.
