ANY QUESTIONS!!. Don’t hesitate to ask!. WEB. INAR OBJECTIVES. Natural Vegetation The grasses, shrubs and trees, which grow on their own without interference or help from human beings are called natural vegetation. Different types of natural vegetation are dependent on different climatic conditions, among which the amount of rainfall is very important.
