Discussion
On the basis of natural vegetation and wildlife, India is divided into how many biogeographic regions?
Answer: D
India is divided into 10 biogeographic regions.
The classification by Rodgers and Panwar (Wildlife Institute of India, 1988, revised 2002) divides India into ten biogeographic zones based on vegetation, wildlife and physical features: the Trans-Himalaya, Himalaya, Desert, Semi-arid, Western Ghats, Deccan Peninsula, Gangetic Plain, North-East, Coasts, and Islands. These are further divided into 27 biotic provinces.
The figures of 6, 7 and 8 do not match this standard scheme used for planning India's protected area network.
