The correct answer for the given question above would be option B. When the area around a pond is cooler than the rest of the forest, this area around the pond is described as a microclimate. Microclimate usually exists around bodies of water, wherein the climate of a small or restricted area differs from its surrounding area. Other examples include caves and houses. These small areas have different climates compared to its surrounding or outside area.
