Answer:

Here u go

Step-by-step explanation:

The alpine tundra domain is at an altitude in the high mountains in Europe. It is far away from the equator and closer to the poles.

The Alpine tundra is located at very high elevations, where overnight temperatures fall well below freezing. The Tundra regions typically get less than 10 inches of rain every year, which means these areas are also considered deserts.

Their frequent winds and cold temperatures. This helps limit what plants can grow there. Most alpine plants last for serval years, and are very strong. It's very rocky and mountains otherwise.

Only perennial plants last in this ecosystem. It is very tough to survive.
