Solution
The correct option is A Prairie - epiphyte
An epiphyte is a plant that is not a parasite but it grows upon another plant and derives its moisture and nutrients from the air, rain. Epiphytes are usually found in the temperate zone (e.g., many mosses, liverworts, lichens, and algae) or in the tropics (e.g., many ferns, cacti, orchids, and bromeliads. Prairie is a type of ecosystem and considered as a part of the temperate grasslands, savannas, and shrubland biome by ecologists, based on similar temperate climates, moderate rainfall, and a composition of grasses, herbs, and shrubs, rather than trees, as the dominant vegetation type. Thus. the correct answer is option B.
