Answer: The correct answer is B) Desert.
An arid biome is a region which is typically characterized by scarcity of water. This is because the annual rainfall is very low. Moreover, these areas experience the highest annual temperature. Due to this, the rate of evaporation becomes very high. Such biomes lack vegetation.
Desert is considered as an arid biome. It is because the desert is mainly part of dry lands. The annual rainfall in these parts is less than ten inches. Plants and animals have specific adaptations to survive in the harsh conditions.
For instance, some plants have deep tap roots to access groundwater.
Example- Thar desert present in Rajasthan is an example of arid biome.
