Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

It's the only one that even would make sense. Animals like zebras don't live in areas with thick trees, nor could they live in colder climates, or anywhere with "rocky" terrain.

Answer:

grasses with trees intermixed

Step-by-step explanation:

Savanna is a type of vegetation cover, the best known is African, however there are other species of savanna. It is characterized by containing mainly grasses with mixed trees.

Tropical and subtropical savannas are found on all continents, with two well-defined seasons (one hot and one rainy). The soils in these areas are relatively fertile, where grasses, mixed with trees, are fixed.

Temperate savannas are identified at medium latitudes and on all continents, are influenced by the temperate climate, whose summer is relatively humid and the winter is dry. The vegetation consists of grasses.

In addition to these, there are also Mediterranean, mountainous and swampy savannas.
