so it will grow back. Plants and
trees are not so lucky...
Spanish Needle was named

sharp needles.
Plants recieve the most energy
in the energy pyramid.
After eating the plants, herbavores
recieve some of the energy from the
plant. Carnavores get little energy from
the herbavore.

Farmers eat the food they grow, since
they use grasslands as thier farms.
Since it is flat land for miles,
plants easily recieve light.
Adaptions

Grass can survive intense
heat and days with out
water because thier roots
are deep in the ground, and
absorb water there.

Others
Out of the 6 types of
grasses, the grazing grass
grows in the grasslands.
 This grass is good for animals.
Grass-Pink is found in the United
States. And it is... pink.
Somtimes lightning or animals
may damage the plant. For grass,
this is no problem.
Grassland Plants
Plants are green because
of Photosynthesis. When
the sun's rays hit the plant,
a chemical reaction happens,
turning the plant green.

The roots of the grass allow the plant to spring up
after the stem is removed. This is why grass can
survive better then other plants.
