"There are two types of grasslands, temperate and savannas. In temperate grasslands, temperatures vary more from summer to winter. Temperate grasslands have hot summers and cold winters. Rainfall is very moderate in temperate grasslands. The annual average amount of rainfall is about twenty to thirty-five inches. The soil in temperate grasslands is nutrient-rich and very fertile. The soil
. provides a great food source for living plants. There is also occasional fires in the temperate grasslands.In the savanna, there are frequent fires from seasonal lightening. The savannas have both seasonal drought and extreme seasonal rain. There is high temperatures. There is also compact soil. The high temperatures make it great for growing plants, but the compact soil doesn't always work on the plants side. Also, since there are many fires in the savannas, plants and trees are quite frequently burned."
