Downs are grasslands in Australia while velds and prairies are grasslands in Southern Africa and Northern America respectively.

Explanation:

North America and Eastern Europe are examples of temperate grasslands. The grassland biome has been greatly influenced by humans. Because temperate grasslands provide excellent soil, the vast majority of grasslands in the United States have been converted to crop fields or cattle grazing land.

• The Central Lowlands and High Plains of the United States and Canada make up North America’s grasslands.
• Eurasia consists of steppes that stretch from Ukraine to Russia and Mongolia.
• Argentina’s pampas, Uruguay’s pampas, and southeastern Brazil’s pampas.
• Africa: the Republic of South Africa’s veld.
