Flora and Fauna we think may live in a desert:
|
We have selected this list from a combination of prior knowledge, and many of the Science tasks we have done recently. Some general characteristics we agreed on was about how the flora would need to consist of small leaves with veins that weren't exposed to the sun. Plants like the succulents we listed would need to be water holding and would to be able to store water for long periods of time. Because this list is very general we haven't listed specific species but have stated that all animals also need to be able to go without water for long periods of time. all animals must also have a strong hide and skin to be able to resist the sun's heat.

We think that animals such as the Thorny devil would be able to survive, because of their thick skin and heat resistance.
