  • A.Grasses with few hardwood trees
  • B.Short, softwood trees
  • C.Tall, hardwood evergreen trees
  • D.Short, hardwood trees

Answer: C

The answer is Tall, hardwood evergreen trees.

Tropical evergreen rainforests grow where rainfall exceeds about 200 cm and there is no real dry season. Trees such as rosewood, mahogany and ebony rise to 45 m or more in a multi-layered canopy and keep their leaves all year. In India they are found in the Western Ghats, the north-east and the Andamans.

Grasses with few trees describes savanna. Short softwood trees fit coniferous or alpine forests, and short hardwood trees fit dry thorn or scrub forests.
