Tundra is situated in northern latitude and is very cold having a negative 34 degrees and has a permafrost while desert is often situated closer to equator and thus have hot climate yet they have a similar characteristic when it comes to vegetation or the plants as both experience a water scarcity thus plants are already adapted to live in water-barren environment.

In a tundra, the animals must have a huge storage of water in their body in order for them to store more water to survive in the hot temperature.
