*** About Desert Ecosystems: Desert ecosystems are characterized by their extreme conditions—scorching temperatures during the day and plummeting ones at night. Despite these challenges, deserts are home to a variety of life forms that have adapted to survive with minimal water. Plants like the one featured in this image have developed abilities to store water and manage with reduced photosynthetic activity. Animals and plants in desert environments often show fascinating evolutionary adaptations, making these regions rich in biodiversity and scientific interest. Studies of these ecosystems continue to contribute significantly to our understanding of ecological resilience and adaptation.
