Solution

Speed is crucial for survival in the grasslands for animals that stay there because:

  1. There are few trees in the grassland that can shield animals from predators like lions and tigers.
  2. In the tiniest grass, predators can easily discover their prey.
  3. As a result, these animals must move fast to dodge their pursuers and reach a secure spot.
  4. In the grass, predators may find it easier to spot their prey.
  5. Deer and zebras, for example, are constructed to run quickly to keep away from predators.

As a result, grassland animals value speed above all else.

A lion's grassland survival adaptation example:

  1. The skin of the lion is grass yellow.
  2. They have a keen sense of smell, which helps them locate their prey.
  3. They have strong leg muscles that allow them to chase down prey fast.
