Answer 1

Explain why speed is important for survival in the grasslands for animals that live there (Hint: There are few trees or places for animals to hide in grasslands habitat). Answer: ... Therefore, to protect themselves from these predators, animals adapt themselves by increasing theirspeed.

Answer 2

The grassland is a place where very few trees or places are available for an animal to hide. Let us take example of a cheetah and a deer to understand the importance of speed for survival in the grassland. The cheetah is the fastest animal on earth. The deer is also very fast, but not as fast as a cheetah. But a cheetah does not have stamina to run long distances and it easily gets tired. If a cheetah is able to catch a deer in a short span of time, it gets food and can live for another day. Many a times, a cheetah dies after running several short sprints in the pursuit of a deer. A deer, on the other hand, can run long distances. If it is able to run quickly so as not to be caught by a cheetah it can live for another day. The examples of these two animals show the importance of speed for survival in the grasslands.
