Solution
There is scanty vegetation in the deserts because of the following reasons:
- Vegetation depends on two factors: climate and soil.
- Climate in the deserts is either very hot and dry or very cold and dry.
★ Such climate does not allow growth of vegetation.
★ Rainfall is scanty. Hence vegetation does not grow in dry conditions. - Soil is either sandy (in hot deserts) or covered with snow (cold deserts) for most of the year. Both types of soil do not encourage vegetation to grow.
- Climate in the deserts is either very hot and dry or very cold and dry.
