Solution
The correct option is D Biome
A biome is a large geographical area characterized by certain types of plants and animals. A biome is defined by the complex interactions of plants and animals with the climate, geology, soil types, water resources, and latitude of an area.
One example of a biome is a desert. Deserts are the world's driest regions. Most of the vegetation there takes the form of drought-resistant plants such as cacti, which store water in their stems and have waxy coverings, and scrubby plants like the creosote bush, that have extensive root system.
