My name is Rakesh and I am from INDIA

Some people believe that the Desert is 'an empty space'... and rather called Desereted place but it is not like that.

Deserts take up about one third of the Earth's land surface.

Most traditional human life in deserts is nomadic. It depends in hot deserts on finding water, and on following infrequent rains to obtain grazing for livestock. In cold deserts, it depends on finding good hunting and fishing grounds, on sheltering from blizzards and winter extremes, and on storing enough food for winter. Permanent settlement in both kinds of deserts requires permanent water and food sources and adequate shelter, or the technology and energy sources to provide it.

Many deserts are flat and featureless, lacking landmarks, or composed of repeating landforms such as sand dunes or the jumbled ice-fields of glaciers. Advanced skills or devices are required to navigate through such landscapes and inexperienced travellers may perish when supplies run out after becoming lost. In addition sandstorms or blizzards may cause disorientation in severely reduced visibility.

The danger represented by wild animals in deserts has been featured in explorers' accounts but does not cause higher rates of death than in other environments such as rain forests or savanna woodland, and generally does not by itself affect human distribution. Defence against polar bears may be advisable in some areas of the Arctic, as may precautions against venomous snakes and scorpions in choosing sites at which to camp in some hot deserts.

Rain does fall in deserts, and desert storms are often violent the heat waves dry stream channels, little rain falls in deserts, deserts receive runoff from ephemeral, or short-lived, streams fed considerable quantities of sediment for a day or two. scrotching sun evaporate large amounts of water on their journeys through the deserts, but their volumes are such that they maintain their continuity.Deserts may also have underground springs, rivers, or reservoirs that lie close to the surface, or deep underground. Plants that have not completely adapted to sporadic rainfalls in a desert environment may tap into underground water sources that do not exceed the reach of their root systems.

adaptation to desert animals make them survive in extream climate like camel has endurence power of bearing hot climate upto 50 degree celcius even this temprature the sweat gland liberates the sweat,
in their stomach a large vessele like cluster can store water in stomach
the eye lashes has large hatr which prevents dust to cornea,
ears are so small that prevent sand particles
like wise for running in desert fast the padded camel toe or feet the good example of survive in desert
as we see the flaora they develop to adapted hard cuticle layer over them to prevent water loss
almost all plant s have their life cycle so short and accordingly to the spring to rainy season
in which they can germinate from hibernated seed and emerged as offspring and shoot to adult and make their life cycle fast to flowering and seeding till the rainy seasonds off
