What is a grassland biome?

A grassland biome is a type of ecosystem characterized by vast stretches of grasses, herbs, and low shrubs, with few trees. Grasslands can be found on every continent except Antarctica and are typically located in areas with moderate rainfall and seasonal temperature changes. There are two main types of grasslands: temperate grasslands, which are found in regions with cold winters and hot summers, and tropical grasslands, which are found in regions with warm temperatures year-round. Grasslands are home to a diverse array of plant and animal species, including grazing mammals like bison and antelope, as well as birds, insects, and reptiles.
