welcome to moomoomath and science in
this video you will learn about the
biome called the savanna the savanna is
a type of biome with large stretches of
breslin's
mix with trees and shrubs it is a mix
between a tropical forests and a
temperate grassland savannas have warm
temperatures year-round there are
actually two very different seasons in a
savanna a very long dry season in the
winter and a very wet season in the
summer in the dry season a savanna may
receive only 4 inches of rain the dry
season is between December and February
and has occasional fires in the summer
it may rain often and this biome may
receive up to 10 to 25 inches of
rainfall savannas are located in Africa
Brazil India and Australia the savanna
we are most familiar with is the East
African savanna this savanna is dotted
with trees and shrubs the Serengeti
plains of Tanzania are some of the most
well known here animals like lions
zebras elephants and giraffes are found
many animals in the savanna
have the ability to migrate many types
of grasses exist in the savanna and this
biome is known for the acacia trees and
Bale Bab trees plants of the savanna
have the ability to grow in this
environment of long periods of drought
they may have long roots to reach the
water table or thick bark to resist
fires trunks that can store water and
even leaves that drop during the winter
to conserve water
fires are an important part of the
savanna during the dry season fires
clear out old grasses and make way for
new growth most of the plants will
survive because they have extensive root
systems which allow them to grow back
quickly after a fire
so there we go the biome called the
savanna
large animals occasional trees and grass
