The type of vegetation most commonly found in tundra regions includes mosses, lichens, and various low-growing shrubs. This vegetation has adapted to the harsh climatic conditions characteristic of the tundra, including low temperatures and short growing seasons. The lack of deep soil and permafrost limits the root systems of these plants, which thrive in poor nutrient conditions. Tundra vegetation plays a crucial role in supporting local wildlife, serving as food for herbivores and providing habitat for a range of organisms in these extreme environments.
