Solution

The correct option is B Temperate deciduous forest
Temperate deciduous or broad-leafed forests are deciduous forests. The areas have warm summer and moderately cool winter. Rainfall is 100 to 250 cms. Dominant trees are Oak, Elm, Birch, Maple, Chestnut, Beech, Poplar and Magnolia. Conifers occur at places. Shrubs, Herbs, Ferns, Mosses, Lichens, Grasses, Vines and epiphytes are abundant. Most trees shed their leaves during autumn or fall making the soil brown.
During autumn season leaves accumulate anthocyanin and change colour and later on fall from trees.
