    Question

    In which type of climate are deciduous forests and tree-shredded grasslands found?

    A.

    Humid subtropical climate

    B.

    ​Subtropical steppe climate

    C.

    Tropical wet and dry climate

    D.

    Warm temperate (mid-latitude) climate

    Correct option is C

    ​The correct answer is (c) Tropical wet and dry climate

    Explanation:

    Deciduous forests and tree-shredded grasslands are typically found in Tropical Wet and Dry Climate (also known as the Savanna Climate). This climate is characterized by:

    • Distinct wet and dry seasons (caused by monsoons or shifting wind patterns).
    • Moderate to high temperatures throughout the year.
    • Deciduous trees that shed their leaves in the dry season to conserve water.
    • Grasslands with scattered trees (savanna vegetation).

    Such regions include parts of India, Africa (Serengeti), Brazil, and Southeast Asia.

    Information Booster:

    • Deciduous Forests: Found in areas where rainfall is moderate, leading to trees that shed leaves during the dry season (e.g., Teak, Sal, and Mahogany in India).
    • Savanna Grasslands: These are tree-dotted grasslands found in Africa, parts of India, and South America.

    Additional Knowledge:

    • Humid Subtropical Climate: Found in parts of the USA, China, and Argentina, characterized by hot summers and mild winters, supporting broadleaf evergreen forests.
    • Subtropical Steppe Climate: Found in parts of Rajasthan, Central Asia, and Australia, with semi-arid conditions and sparse vegetation.
    • Warm Temperate (Mid-Latitude) Climate: Found in Southern Europe, Japan, and the USA, supporting mixed forests with deciduous and evergreen trees.
