Review

Draw Conclusions

Could a redwood tree survive in the desert?

Text Clues Conclusions

Redwoods grow along the California coast.

Redwoods are normally found along the coast.

Here the cool, damp climate and rich soil are just right for them to grow.

The desert’s warm, dry climate and sandy soil will not allow the redwood tree to survive in the desert.
