Biologist Chris Schneider uses the example of the leaf mantis in the rainforests of Ecuador. How is this mantis “highly modified” compared to the ones in North America? How would these modifications give it an advantage in this ecosystem?

answer: grassland biomes are closer to the equator and receive more rain.

grasslands are biomes that are dominated by grasses rather shrubs and trees. savanna are biomes that exhibit grasses, shrubs and small tree as vegetation. grasslands are located near the equator of the earth. these are found in north america. savanna biomes are found in africa, south america, australia and india. grassland exhibit moderate climatic conditions, it receives   amount of rainfall higher than savanna.   therefore, savanna exhibit dry and hot climatic conditions.
