Solution
The correct option is C Both the statements are incorrect. The trees in Tropical Deciduous Forests shed their leaves in the dry season to prevent water loss. In the moonsoon season, these trees grow their leaves back again. For this reason, they are also known as 'Monsoon Forests'. Tropical Evergreen Forests are also known as 'Rainforests' as the trees in these forests remain lush green throughout the year.
