Solution

The correct option is E Tectona - Temperate forest
Tectona is a genus of tropical hardwood trees in the mint family, Lamiaceae. The three species, often collectively called teak, are native to south and southeast Asia, mainly India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Burma, Indonesia and Thailand, and are commonly found as a component of monsoon forest vegetation. They are large trees, growing to 30 to 40m tall, deciduous in the dry season. Tectona grandis is an economically important species, which is the source of most commercial teak wood products. Temperate forests correspond to forest concentrations formed in the northern and southern hemisphere, or in temperate regions. The main trees found in these forests are oak, ash, maple, birch, beech, poplar, elm and pine. In many areas, forests have been cleared to make way for cultivation. Thus, the correct answer is option E.
