Solution

The correct option is A deserts
Mushroom rocks are erosional landforms that are formed in dry regions like deserts. When the sand particles in deserts come in contact with rocks, they scratch and polish the surface of these rocks. As the rocks gets scratched most near the bottom of the rocks, landforms that are broad at the top and narrow at the bottom are created. These are mushroom rocks.
