You have been given a piece of evidence indicating that plant and animal life is scarce in this environment. Identify this environment and the correct explanation.

Desert.

Explanation:

Desert is a region that has low amount of precipitation or rainfall throughout the year. Desert is also characterized by the fact that desert has high evaporation rate because desert is very hot.

Not all plants and animals can thrive in this kind of condition, but few plants and animals can and they do that by developing an advance features or traits so as to survive the region. The most common example of plant that can thrive in the desert is the cactus plant and the most common example of animal that can thrive in the desert is the camel.

it is to be noted that an alpha particle is an helium nucleus. so it contains 2 protons 2 neutrons and has a mass number of 4. when alpha decay particles are ejected from the nucleus it gets transformed into an atom which has atomic number less than 2 and a mass number less than 4.

an equation that could represent alpha decay is radium 226 decay of alpha particle forms radon 222.
