The correct option is D Tropical rain forests Net primary productivity (NPP) is the productivity of an individual or collection of plants. High NPP indicates a healthy plant community. Tropical rainforests are located near the equator. They receive a high amount of sunlight and warmth. These places are wet and receive heavy rainfall seasonally or all round the year. They have more kinds of trees than any other forests in the world. Hence they have a maximum NPP. Thus the correct answer is option D.
