In the context of plants adapted to the savanna biome compared to those in grassland biomes, the correct answer is:
**b. thick bark**
Savanna plants often experience frequent fires, and thick bark can help protect them from heat and fire damage. While some grassland plants may also have adaptations for fire, they don't typically require thick bark as a primary survival strategy.
The other options, such as long roots, water storage, and bitter taste, can be found in both savanna and grassland plants.
