Answer:

Out of the given biomes, a desert spans the largest annual mean temperature range, but the narrowest mean precipitation range.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • A desert is characterized by long and wide stretches of arid, sandy lands with least vegetation.
  • Due to the absence of green cover, the insolation received in the desert area is the highest and thus, the annual mean temperature range here is also the highest.
  • At the same time, owing to zero or negligible vegetation and no possibility of orographic precipitation, deserts receive the least rainfalls than any other type of biome.
