1 hrly gs ch 05 deserts
Deserts are defined as areas that receive very little rainfall, usually less than 10 inches per year, and have high evaporation rates. They cover about 20% of the Earth's land surface and are found on every continent. Deserts receive little precipitation, have large daily temperature variations, and support distinctive plants and animals adapted to their arid conditions. The major types of deserts are cold (polar, tundra), hot (arid), and coastal deserts. Cold deserts like the Arctic and Antarctic are covered in snow and ice and have year-round extremely cold temperatures. Hot deserts such as the Sahara receive very little rainfall and have hot days and cold nights. Coastal deserts are dry but
