Solution

The correct option is B Desert
Temperature of soil surface varies the most in deserts. Deserts are usually sandy and are devoid of any major flora and fauna. The lack of trees to provide any shade makes deserts very hot during the day. Since, sand cannot retain heat, deserts become very cold in the night, sometimes even reaching below freezing temperatures.
