Correct option is B
Option (b) contains an error.
Error Identification: The singular verb "is" is incorrect when referring to the plural noun "Earth's deserts."
Grammatical Explanation: The subject "deserts" is plural, and thus, the verb must also be plural ("are" instead of "is").
Corrected sentence: "Earth's deserts are a land of extremes."
Explanation: The subject "deserts" is plural, so the verb must agree in number. "Are" should be used to match the plural subject.
