Answer: Tundra

Explanation: Tundra is not a characteristic of the African climate, because the tundra represents a treeless, cold, Arctic zone of Northern Europe, North America and Asia. In such areas there is an extremely low temperature that is not inherent in Africa, then many areas that are frozen.

Deserts are certainly typical African landscape that represents arid, sandy, mostly dry, hot areas with occasional rain, as well as savannas that are grassy plains, characteristic of the tropics.

In those parts of Africa, where there are frequent and heavy rainfall, there are characteristic rain-forests which are biologically very diverse.
