Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

The temperate leaves grow in temperate forests found in America, Europe, and Asia. This biome comprise of trees have evergreen conifers with needle like leaves. Such leaves can endure wide change of temperature and light. Some vegetation of temperate biome are conifers such as Pine, Hemlock and other. The trees shed their leaves with the beginning of fall and new leaves are delivered in late-winter  to protect from the cold.
