Answer:

Savanna biomes are closer to the equator and receive more rain.

Step-by-step explanation:

Biomes are large geographic regions defined by a specific type of climate pattern and certain dominant plant and animal communities. Both grassland biomes and savanna biomes contain mostly grasses. Grassland biomes are found in semi-arid climate regions, where the rainfall is not sufficient to support significant tree growth. Savannas are grassy ecosystems with a significant component of woody-plants like shrubs or trees. They are found closer to the equator because of their warm climate requirements. They have two distinct seasons; a rainy season in the summer with a good amount of rain and a dry season in the winter.
