"Deserts are very hot and dry places. Deserts get very little rain each year. So how do plants and animals live here? This section on the desert ecosystem will explain how!" "explore the desert ecosystem and find out more! Click on plants, insects and arachnids, reptiles, birds, mammals or a special page for camels to learn more!"

The United States has several large deserts.  The main ones are the Mojave, the Great Basin, the Chihuahuan and the Sonoran.  Each on has differnt types of plant and animal life that differentiate them from the others.  There are far too many facts to mention about deserts without knowing exactly what you are looking for so I am going to post a source for more info.

Two.  Parts of the Mojave Desert and the Sonoran Desert are in California.

I've seen the mountain ranges in the Alps, the Himalayas, the Andes, and the mountains; Mt Kinabalu (highest mountain in South East Asia), several mountains in Taiwan, East Turkestan and Vietnam.\n\nThe Fishtail mountain (Macchapucchre) in Nepal is the most beautiful of them all.

The largest (nonpolar) desert in the world is the Sahara, in north Africa, which spans an area measured at roughly 3.5 million square miles.

Sahara is the desert in Africa, but Antarctica is the largest desert in the world.  It may sound weird, but the lack of percipitation in Antarctica classifies it as a desert.

Geographers identify eight major physical regions of the United States. The physical features found include snowcapped mountains in the west; fertile, rolling plains in the center; and smoothly formed mountains in the east.

Desert - very dry, either hot or cold \nTundra - cool, treeless, and dry \nChaparral or scrub - coastal area with hot, dry summers and mild, cool, rainy winters \nTaiga or Coniferous Forest - cool and dry, with coniferous trees \nTemperate Deciduous Forest - cool and rainy, with deciduous trees \nGrassland - Windy, partly dry sea of grass with few trees, including tropical savanna, prairie, steppe, pampas, etc. \nMountina biomes: there are a lot of different biomes that exist on a mountains, from grasslands at low altitudes, taiga (coniferous forests) below the treeline, and alpine (the same as tundra) \nTemperate Rain Forest - cool and wet \nTropical Rain Forest - warm and very wet \nLand Caves - cool and dark \nWetlands - there are many types of wetlands, including swamps, marshes, moors, bogs, fens, sloughs, etc. \nFreshwater Marsh - a wetland located near creeks, streams, rivers and lakes \nTemperate ponds

Just to name a few...\n\nAlps, Himalayas, Rockies\n\nFor more info: http://www.peakware.com/areas.html\n\nAlthough the above link has ALL the ranges (a bit overwhelming) my suggestion, for your homework, is to find the high points of each continent and list that range. Those are likely the 'most important'.\n\nTo get you started:\nEurope: Mont Blanc (or Monte Bianco) (Actually, Russia may have a higher mountain technically in Europe)\nAsia: Mt. Everest\nNorth America: Mt. McKinnley (Denali)\nSouth America: Aconcaqua (SP?) in Argentina\nAfrica: ???\nAustralia: ???\nAntartica: ???

Here is one of the best websites on the deserts of the Southwestern USA, which includes desert life, some geology, and descriptions of the deserts.\nhttp://www.desertusa.com/flow.html\n\nCalifornia has some wondrous deserts, with miles and miles of open wild spaces. The main deserts in California are the Sonoran Desert, the Mojave Desert, and portions of the Great Basin Desert. Other names exist in common usage for some portions of these deserts. \n\nThere is also a list of good books on deserts on the DesertUSA website:\nhttp://www.desertusa.com/web_cart/db/pages/chi.html\n\nTo learn more about what conditions create a desert check out the UC Berkeley website on Desert Biomes at:\nhttp://www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/glossary/gloss5/biome/deserts.html\n\nThe USGS is another great resource for information on deserts:\nhttp://pubs.usgs.gov/gip/deserts/

Varied.  There are mountains, and there are sandy plains.  There are raging volcanos, and quiet deserts, fertile expanses, and deep unexplored crevices.
