PLANTS/ANIMALS... In a savanna biome there are very littleto no plants . the savanna biome consist of srubs, trees, coarse grass, vertical and sharp leaves . there is a lot of dirty invthe savanna and very small ponds . the Animals that dont eat meat feed off the trees and shrubs that are there .​Plants of the savannas are highly specialized to grow in this environment of long periods of drought. They have long tap roots that can reach the deep water table, thick bark to resist annual fires, trunks that can store water, and leaves that drop of during the winter to conserve water. The grasses have adaptations that discourage animals from grazing on them; some grasses are too sharp or bitter tasting for some animals, but not others, to eat. The side benefit of this is that every species of animal has something to eat. Different species will also eat different parts of the grass. Many grasses grow from the bottom up, so that the growth tissue doesn't get damaged by grazers. Many plants of the savanna also have storage organs like bulbs and corms for making it though the dry season.
