Answer:  

Grassland biome is native to Argentina, Ukraine, Russia and South America. Temperature in the biome varies greatly between summers and winters. The grassland biome receives very little to moderate rainfall.  Therefore, the biome cannot support the growth of large trees and the region is occupied with grasses and shrubs. There are many varieties of grasses that grow in this biome such as needleless grass, ryegrass, foxtail and buffalo grass. The grassland biome cannot support the growth of wheat, corn and barley as the soil is not suitable for growth.

All grasslands are ideal for survival of the herbivores as grasses are abundantly present. These includes mammals such as hoofs, horses, deer, small mice and rats.

On the basis of above description, the characteristics of the grassland biome are as follows:

mild temperatures

large variety of grasses and shrubs

moderate rainfall

mice
