Correct option is A
The correct answer is (a) Chir.
· Chir pine (Pinus roxburghii) is a common tree found in the mountain forests of India, particularly in the Himalayan region. It thrives at altitudes between 500 to 2,500 meters and is well-suited to the temperate climate of the mountain areas.
· These forests also include other coniferous trees such as deodar, blue pine, and spruce.
Information Booster:
· Ash: Generally found in temperate forests, not specifically associated with mountain forests in India.
· Cactus: Typically found in arid and semi-arid regions, such as deserts, not in mountain forests.
· Maple: More commonly found in temperate regions, especially in North America and parts of Europe, rather than in Indian mountain forests.
