The correct option is D Tropical rain forests
Species diversity or genetic variation increases as one proceeds from high altitude to low altitude and high latitude to low latitude. Tropical rain forests are wet and dense. They exhibit maximum genetic variations due to increased temperature and rainfall. They show high animal and plants biodiversity.
Thus, the correct answer is 'Tropical rain forests.'
