Which one of the following statements is NOT correct?
Answer: D
The statement that is not correct is Average temperature in Tundra is above 30 °C.
The tundra is the coldest biome on land. Its mean annual temperature is below freezing, winters fall far below 0 °C, and even the warmest month averages only about 10 °C, which is too cold for trees. An average above 30 °C would describe a hot desert, not the tundra.
The other statements are the standard textbook account. Many northern mammals, such as bears, ground squirrels and bats, hibernate through winter. Tundra vegetation is low and herbaceous: mosses, lichens, sedges, grasses and dwarf shrubs. Broadleaf deciduous trees dominate the temperate forests of the Northern Hemisphere, which is the sense in which the paper states it.
