Solution

The correct option is A Dwarf shrubby plants
Alpine tundra is a type of biome that is found at high elevation like Himalayas. It does not contain trees. Instead, it has dwarf shrubby plants. As the latitude approaches the poles, the threshold elevation for alpine tundra gets lower till sea level. It is present in mountains worldwide.
Thus, the correct answer is 'It has dwarf shrubby plants.'
