B Low rainfall
C Extreme temperatures
D Scanty vegetation
A desert is a landscape or region that receives very little rainfall (less than 250mm annually) making the conditions unsuitable for plant and animal life. Deserts are regions characterised by low rainfall, scanty vegetation, and extreme temperatures.
Deserts can be either hot or cold.
